I know you were referring to Robinson. I was just being a smart aleck. Nettles was no slouch, though.

No slouch at all! He was fantastic. My list was in no particular order btw. For overall ability and stats, (hitting/throwing/fielding/MVP’s/Gold Gloves/All Star App. etc. etc. etc), at 3rd. base I gotta go with the Phillie’s Mike Schmidt. He was far from my favorite player, (never cared for Philadelphia anything!!!), but he gets my vote.

I remember Nettles making great plays when he was on the Indians!

Those Municipal Stadium Royals were a great infield. Schaal, Patek/Rojas. And the legendary groundskeeper. Those were really cool teams.
