...Pie Traynor, who was generally considered the best third baseman of the 20th century until Brooks, Brett, and Schmidt came along.
__________________________________________________ ___________ How anybody thought that Pie Traynor was better than Eddie Mathews is beyond me. Even as a little kid I was befuddled as to why Traynor was the third baseman in the Topps 1976 all-time greats subset. |

Santo, Hodges, and Finley would be my choices. Santo was the best 3rd baseman of his era, and combined with his WGN announcing days, he became the second " Mr. Cub" no offense meant to Ernie Banks. I have met Santo many times in person and he was top notch. It's a crime they didn't elect him before he died. Hopefully his son Jeff and Ronny jr can be there in his place along with his wife Vicki. Santo was also great for the community with his work in JDRF.
