No contest
The hands down winner is Dick Stuart aka "Dr Strangeglove" aka "Stonefingers" aka "The Potted Plant" Stuart was about the worst fielder at any position I can recall. I have no range, can't throw and mediocre reflexes (and am over 50) and even today I am better defensively than he was in his prime

Has to be Dr. StoneGlove, a name he earned on merit.
