hustle--P. Rose
inside--N. Ryan
square--E. Whitt (?)
macho--R. Clemens (obvs. don't care mucho for "macho")
lumber--M. Piazza (maybe due to thinking of Clemens?)
mustache--R. Fingers

I'm thinking everything else is a control-- "inside" and "square" are where the fun is.

hustle - Frank Robinson - he gave everything he had on every play. He had all five tools, and he was going to beat you with one of them.
inside - Bob Gibson
square - Bobby Richardson. The Yankees saw that he had been leaving the team hotel the nights after road games. They had a detective follow him and learned that he went out for a milkshake!
macho - Ted Wiliams - Marine fighter pilot in two wars. Used to scream at himself during batting practice to work up his anger toward the opposing pitcher.
lumber - Willie Stargell
mustache - Bobby Valentine - that fake one in the "disguise" he wore to get back into the dugout when the ump tossed him out of the game.
