An MLB hitter batting .300 with 30 home runs and 100 runs batted in is a great season. Average that for 15 seasons and the player winds up with .300 BA, 450 HR, and 1500 RBI. Only these 12 players have accomplished that. Which players are most surprising to be included/excluded?

Will Jarren Duran still be on the Boston Red Sox after the MLB Trade Deadline? Right now he seems like one of the hardest players to root for on a team that has been incredibly easy to support of late. Most important, he's not performing well. Would he be addition by subtraction?
