He did, but I think that rider1 was talking about "at the time" when they were all 3 on the same team. Anyhow, Kuiper once had, and still may hold, the MLB record for most AB's without a homer, and also most AB's with only one. I will go look up those stats on Duane, Veryzer and Dilone. Don't forget Alex Cole, either, on the non-power! Ha ha!
Here you go:
Kuiper hit 1 homer in 3754 AB! . Veryzer could stroke the ball! He had 14 homers in 2848 AB. Next up is Dilone. He had 6 homers in exactly 2000 AB.

Wow, you picked two pretty good players and one not so great. Alvis was a 2-time all star and pretty good hitter and Keltner played on those great teams in the 40s and was a 7x all star.
Then there's Sid...

So, I take it I got "Stunning" rights?
Now, for your next list:
Archie is easy - Rick Manning!
Jake is tougher and I'm going with Brook Jacoby.
Stone Hands back in my day was Dick Stuart...don't think that he ever played with the Tribe, so I'm going with a classic name for Tribe fans....Tony Horton!
Here's my next 3:
Chuck Hinton
John O'Donoghue
Dick Radatz

Stunning was Dunning
Stone Fingers was ( right initials T.H. but was Toby Harrah, the man they got for Buddy Bell. I remember Pete Franklin playing Barbra Streisand, Memories, all night long and burying the Indians the night of that trade)
Harvey Kuenn ( for Rocky Colavito)
Steve Demeter ( for Norm Cash)
Cam Carreon ( for Tommy John) w/ Rocky's return to Cleveland
and bonus because it stands alone in Indians history.................... 10 CENT BEER NIGHT, what a riot that was!
