I have to admit, I didn't realize the Indians had 3 Hall of Fame 2B from the franchise. I agree that Nap was probably the best of the three, but still interesting to read. Nice to see Shoeless Joe getting some further recognition.

Given the history (since 1901), I would have expected a little better as at least three of the lineup are from recent times (last 20-30 years). Who was that Rookie of the Year for the Indians that faded quick - '79 maybe? Joe?
