In the glory days of the early 90s Blue Jays, Devon White was their leadoff man, helping them win their coveted back-to-back World Series Titles in 1992 and 1993.

White first tasted Major League action in 1985 as a member of the California Angels and was a starting Centerfielder two years later.  White made his first All-Star Game in 1989, but after a sub-par 1990, White was traded to Toronto in a transaction that history favored the Blue Jays.

White’s first three years in Toronto were fantastic.  A Gold Glove recipient in all five of his Jays years, White led the AL in Total Zone Runs in 1992 and Defensive bWAR and was a crucial cog in the Jays World Series wins in 1992 and 1993, the latter of which was an All-Star year.  In all those campaigns, White had at least 155 Hits, 15 Home Runs, and 30 Stolen Bases, but as competent as he was with his bat, he was considered the best defensive Centerfielder in the American League.  

White slipped in 1994 and 1995, though he was still good, he left for the Marlins for the 1996 Season via free agency.  With Toronto, White batted .270 with 733 Hits and 126 Stolen Bases.

Before he won two back-to-back World Series with Toronto, Devon White established himself as an upper-tier defensive Outfielder with the Angels.

After being drafted in 1981, White first made the Majors in 1985, and that year and in the one that followed, he played a combined 50 Games for the parent club.  White won the starting Centerfielder role in 1987 and had 168 Hits with 24 Home Runs and 32 Stolen Bases, arguably his best season with California.

He had more acclaim in the following years, winning two Gold Gloves (1988 & 1989) and earning an All-Star berth in '89.  White was generating the power numbers of 1987, but his fielding was excellent, and he had enough power and speed to make him a dangerous hitter.

After being injured for a portion of the 1991 Season, White was traded to Toronto in a six-player deal, and arguably he was the only player of note.  In addition to his two rings in Toronto, he won a third in Miami.  

With the Angels, he swiped 123 Bases, collected 551 Hits, and had a Defensive bWAR of 6.9.

Born in Jamaica and raised in the United States, Devon White had a great career where the Outfielder used his speed and defensive skills to perform at a high-end level for over a decade.
