BTW, if you expand that previous search by dropping the OBP to .380 you find that it has been done 25 times.  Three new names appear:  Stargell once, J. Bay once, Jay Buhner once

Ya, Buhner was actually a more TTO-oriented player than we might think...
Bone:  87:155 EYE, 34 HR per 162
Branyan: 63:176 EYE, 31 HR per 162
Jim Lefebvre responded to his TTO inkblot test by trying to keep Buhner out of the major leagues.  At a time when the Mariners had no hitting.
Lefebvre literally believed that any newcomer with a high BB/K/HR total was a non-MLB(TM) player.
