I feel like there's a LOT of flexibility for this.  My first guess is Nettles, assuming this is not a HOFer.

Nettles for the win

Question #153

This player had way over 2000 hits and over 1000 extra base hits. 596 career doubles is his best career stat. Post 1970.....no HOF and only 1 top 15 MVP!

Name this player

Oh yeah.  Duh.  I was concentrating on the other variables.

1x top 15 wipes out the big names but 1000 extra base hits....minus the 596 doubles could give you a HR estimate to help

There you go.

The most obvious roider of all-time to never get a mention

Question #154.....this 4 decade MLB guy surpassed 200 hits 2x, led league in doubles 2x, 4x 100 rbi, surprisingly stole 30+ in a season. Rarely walked or struck out. Batting champ. Two 10th place MVP finishes....only 1x All-Star

Question #155

This MLB pitcher post 1980 played on 5 teams. Was 4x top 6 Cy Young voting. 5 straight years of 16+ wins and went nicely over 20 in one of them.

Name that pitcher

The four decades did it. Only like 20 in baseball history.
