Arizona Diamondbacks All-Time Top 50: #43, Erubiel Durazo

It’s impressive that Durazo makes it onto the Diamondbacks All-Time Top 50, considering he never played even 100 games in a season for the Diamondbacks. But he was a solid hitter in his time here: the lowest on-base percentage he had over the four years in Arizona was .372. I always wondered why he didn’t get more playing time, the team opting to sign Mark Grace instead. Erubiel’s defense was likely a factor. It is probably the same reason why, after his trade to Oakland, he played mostly as a designated hitter. And Durazo had considerably success there, putting up 3.
