In their everyday nine, they had 1) three HOF'ers (even though Baines shouldn't be); 2) Manny, who'd be in except-except; 3) Lofton, who should be; and 4) Vizquel, who probably would have eventually made it except-except. That'd be six HOF'ers. (I don't know why Baseball Reference has Baines as their everyday DH--he had 96 PA with Cleveland. Baseball Reference still lists Zack Collins as the Jays' everyday DH this year, and he hasn't been with the team for months.)
