After BYU

After converting from an infielder to pitcher in his three seasons at BYU, Aguilera was chosen in the third round of the 1983 draft. The right-hander went on to become a two-time World Series champion, first with the Mets in 1986 and again with the Twins in 1991 in a career spanning 16 seasons. A three-time All-Star from 1991-93 who began his career as a starter before moving to a reliever, Aguilera earned 318 saves, good for eighth in MLB history at the time he retired. In 2008, Aguilera was inducted into the Minnesota Twins Hall of Fame.
