Never quite got the recognition that he deserved until late in his career, but had well over 3,000 hits, stole bases, made clutch hits, had some power, and was a very smart and fundamentally sound player- not a great fielder, but lots of injuries prematurely forced him into the DH role. One of those invaluable players who, if I may be so hackneyed, you would say "Now THAT'S A BALLPLAYER!" about.

After Tony Gwynn, I think Molly was the second best hitter in baseball during the 80's. If injuries did not hamper his career, Lord knows what kind of numbers he would have finished with. In any case, he has done quite well for himself. People talk about his injuries, but the man did play 1B, 2B,3B,CF,RF, and DH during his career. One of the true greats ever!

Top 100 certainly and much better than many above on this list

followed his whole career, injuries prevented him from more hits, stuck with the brewers until he just had to get out, who can blame him? some are made for better things , and he deserved his world series ring..as good a hitter as there ever was

Man, what a hitter.

Like Yount & Brett, Molitor was damn good for an unusually long amount of time. Playing for the Brewers, Blue Jays & Twins kept him from getting as much attention as he deserved.
