Hernan Iribarren

It's pretty surprising that Iribarren of all players managed to claw his way back to the major leagues once again. 2016 seemed likely to be another year spent serving as organizational depth, as he began the campaign with his fifth straight assignment to the Triple-A level, but last season turned out to be different. In 410 at-bats with Triple-A Louisville, the veteran batted .327 while walking eight percent of the time and striking out just 14.6 percent of the time. This performance (plus a multitude of injuries at the major league level) led the Reds to bring him up for his first big league action since 2009 with the Brewers, and despite an 0:11 BB:K, he managed to bat .311 with three triples. At 32 years old, Iribarren's best days are behind him, and although last season's performance was a pleasant surprise, it's unrealistic to expect the same production out of him in 2017.
