Julio was a GREAT guess. He had 9.
Damon only had 5, if you can believe it.
Oliver fits that criterion. He (and actually seven others) had 11. However, there's one guy who isn't banned, isn't in the Hall, and had more after 1940.

Helton. 12 seasons. Finished with a lifetime batting average of .316. The only two other non-Hall players are Rose with 15 (banned) and Riggs Stephenson with 12 (pre-1940).

Here's one. He's part of the three-way tie for first with 24 seasons under 100 SOs.

I think I was editing the question as you wrote this, but I meant for it to only be among HOFers.

For the record, these are all just years active at all. If someone had 5 at-bats in a season, that would qualify, but it qualifies for all candidates.
The third winner still had over 8000 at-bats and is in the HOF, so it's not a Deion Sanders-type answer.
