Defensive Outfielders

By Tangotiger, 10:59 AM

According to the Fans, the Mariners now have the Numbers 2, 3, and 4 best fielding outfielders in baseball.  (Beltran is #1.) There’s been alot of two-star fielding OF (Cameron/Ichiro, Pettis/Devon, Chavez/Beltran, etc).  Can you name me the last outfield whereby you had three legitimate CF, all potential Gold-Glovers, at the same time? 

(This of course presumes that Ichiro’s selection by the Fans was not based on the enormous halo effect that may follow him.)
