Glenn Wright deserves to be mentioned as well and not just on a four on one. He had a gym accident in Pittsburgh in the late 1920's and was never the same.

Also, let's not forget about the third base human traffic jam of Dazzy Vance, Chick Fewster and Babe Herman.

Milt Pappas for two reasons:

1. He was traded for an aging Frank Robinson
2. He had a perfect game for 8 2/3 innings before a disputed walk.

How about...
 
Dennis Eckersley for giving up Kirk Gibson's HR in Game 1 of the Series.

Chuck Dressen for demanding a multi-year contract from the Dodgers and promptly being replaced by Walter Alston.

Dan Bankhead for being the 2nd (and generally forgotten) black player in the NL.
