Mike Lowell

Lowell is one of the more quietly admirable players of his era, a steady, fundamentally sound third baseman whose 2007 World Series MVP felt like the reward for years of professionalism. What sticks with me is his backstory: he beat testicular cancer before he had really established himself in the majors, then went on to a championship-caliber career. He was never a flashy superstar, but he was the kind of clutch, defensively reliable veteran that great teams are built around. His final years were dogged by hip injuries, yet he retired with the respect of the Boston faithful, which says a lot.

Mike Lowell (born February 24, 1974, in San Juan, Puerto Rico) is an American former Major League Baseball third baseman. A four-time All-Star and Gold Glove winner, he played for the New York Yankees, Florida Marlins, and Boston Red Sox. He was named Most Valuable Player of the 2007 World Series, which the Red Sox won, and is also remembered as a cancer survivor who overcame testicular cancer early in his career.
