Frederick Blair Stanley (born August 13, 1947 in Farnhamville, Iowa) was a Major League Baseball player from 1969 to 1982 for the Seattle Pilots, Milwaukee Brewers, Cleveland Indians, San Diego Padres, New York Yankees, and Oakland Athletics. Stanley, whose nickname was "Chicken," primarily played as a backup shortstop and was a key backup player to Bucky Dent on the Yankees teams in the late 1970s. Stanley was clearly a favorite player of Phil Rizzuto, who did the play by play announcing during this timeframe. Rizzuto would fondly say things like "How 'bout that Chicken??!!" when Stanley would make a great play. Fact|date=February 2007

Since 1960, no other non-pitcher has had as many seasons( nine) with at least 30 at-bats and five or fewer extra base hits. His batting average was .216

On October 12, 2007, he was appointed as the San Francisco Giants Director of Player Development.
