The 1974 Red Sox had 5 if you allow for Juan Marichal's traded card--Juan, Yaz, Fisk, Aparicio and Cepeda. Strangely, the last two did not play for Boston in 1974--Aparicio retired and Cepeda lingered on for a final season in KC. Given that Fisk was hurt much of the year and Marichal didn't join the team until the last quarter of the season, it's hard to consider this a HOF-laden team and easy to see how they finished under .500.
