Joe Nuxhall has to be on that list.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
What about Tom Seaver. IIRC from my youth, he was a really good hitting pitcher as well.

Your Mom is happy.
Arroyo has been pretty solid at the plate this year. He has really surprised me. Even if he doesn't get a hit he seems to get some good wood on the ball a lot of the time.
It's too early to tell, but Kyle Lohse looks like a pretty good athlete, which sometimes translates to being a good hitter (for a pitcher).
As I said before, Joe Nuxhall has to be considered.
Tom Seaver is another excellent choice.
Bucky Walters was a very good hitter. Of course, he started his major-league career as a 3B/2B.
Eric Stratton, Rush Chairman. Damn glad to meet ya.
Maloney used to say that his 100K bonus to sign was 75k for his arm 25k for his bat (IIRC)
Jimmy Haynes...wasn't much of a pitcher
When he first came up, Chris Hammond was a pretty good hitter...and Jeff Russell was pretty good, also.
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
Joe Edelen could really rake lifetime .286 what a potent force
Brooks Keischnick was a great hitter as a pitcher unfortunately his lifetime average with the reds was .000

Go BLUE!!!
I just went fishing and Hod Eller batted .280 in 1919, an aberation, but he even had 3 doubles, 3 triples and 1 homer. All the other years were on the Interstate (even though the Interstate didn't exist then in reality).
