It's Dinner Time!!
 
I am sure this has probably been done before...but if you could sit at a table for four who would be the three <b>LIVING</b> baseball figures you'd like to have sharing a Creme Brûlée?

<b>Rules are you can pick one 1 current player, 1 former player, and one non-player!</b>

I myself would be intrigued by a meal with

Alex Rodriguez
Hank Aaron
Tim Kurkjian

Boy that would be an interesting conversation.

Jay Wolt 08-27-2015 09:12 AM

Mike Trout
Sandy Koufax
Bob Costas

2. The Bambino
3. Wendell Smith

I know only 3 are permitted, but how can you split up the greatest infield ever?

Rome giving crap to A-Roid would be classic and Wells was always a fun conversation as a player.

That would probably get some ratings!!

"ok A-Roid"

Buck O'Neil would definitely have gotten the third spot and Minnie Minoso also would have been fun, but unfortunately this dinner is a little too late for those two.

Brooks Robinson
Manny Machado
Peter Angelos

I'd start off the dinner by saying..."Brooks, you recently said that Machado may be a greater third baseman than you." As Brooks nods his head, I would turn my attention to Angelos. "Mr. Angelos, you're known for being cheap. How about we turn around your legacy and give Machado a 10-year contract?"

Maybe also ask him why he has ostracized the greatest Oriole in history
