Todd Zeile

Todd Zeile is the kind of ballplayer I genuinely admire, even if he never became a household name. Sixteen seasons, eleven different teams, and the flexibility to catch, play third, and cover first base. That well-traveled resume tells me he was the dependable veteran clubs kept wanting, the guy who fit into a clubhouse and produced wherever he landed. I like that he came out of UCLA and stuck around the majors from 1989 to 2004. To me longevity like that is its own kind of stardom, the unglamorous excellence that keeps a roster steady over a long career.
