Vlad was such a boss. Probably my favorite non-Red of all-time.

Of my lifetime, probably mine too.  Hit for power and average, hardly ever struck out, didn't wear batting gloves, and practically bathed his bat and helmet in pine tar.

Question #39

This team of the early 80’s had 5 future HOFers making up a big part of their team....they lost in the World Series to a team with 2 HOFers....name the teams and 7 HOFers....early 80’s

Extra credit....one of these HOFers were injured late in the season and could’ve changed the WS outcome

I'm guessing the '81 series, Dodgers over Yankees.  I couldn't name all the HOFers, though.

Ozzie
Whitey Herzog was the manager?

So we have
