Pat Listach- 1992 w/ the Brewers. He only had 276 hits after his rookie year!

Theres a lot to choose from...Bob Hamelin, Pat Listach, Todd Hollandsworth, Raul Mondesi, Jerome Walton, Marty Cordova, Ben Grieve...So a good rookie year definitley doesnt guarantee you success. If I had to choose one, I'd give it to Hamelin. At least some of these guys were servicable for a few more years. (Hell, Hollandsworth is still floating around somewhere) Some were done in by injuries, but I think Hamelin was just an enigma, had a halfway decent year when there were few rookies to challenge for the award.

Big Bob Hamelin - 1st baseman for the KC Royals won the ROY in 1994 after batting .282 with 24 HR and 65 RBI
He then proceeded to bounce between AAA and the majors for the next 5 seasons with KC, Detroit, and Milwaukee, batting a combine .224, with an especially UGLY encore to his 1994 season in 1995 by batting a whopping .168 in 208 ABs.

Easily Jerome Walton or Ben Grieve. Those mentioning Hollandsworth or Mondesi are crazy. Mondesi put some good years together and although Hollandsworth was a big dissapointment, he was way more productive then Walton or Grieve.

I was thinking Joe Charboneau, but he falls just outside of your 25 year range. So, I guess I'd say Bob Hamelin.

There have been many. Jerome Walton comes to mind.
