Since GoCanes already asked about Hammerin' Hank, how about Charlie Gehringer and Harry Heilmann?

Nice to see Newhouser dominate in this sim.
Charlie Gehringer
1926 to 1930 DET
1936 - a few more at bats with DET
career .299 average and .338 obp
12 homeruns
2 time all-star
Won 2 pennants with Tigers and a world series in 1926
In 1929 he tore angle ligaments and was out for 8 months
After that his skills started to decline.
1927 - hit .344 with a .374 obp

Harry Heilmann
1916-1923 Detroit Tigers
1,010 hits
.294 average
.356 OBP
3 time all-star
1 gold glove
won 1 pennant with Tigers in 1919
Surely would have had a good career, but fractured his knee in 1923 - career ending injury.
