On Twitter on Monday I was tasked with putting together an all-time Twins team of best names, so here we go. We’re not going to get into too many details. Just vibes here.

This is my list. It’s not based on the best player with a good name at a position. It’s who I think had the best name at the position in Twins history (post-1961).

Your list will definitely differ. Please show me your list!

  • C- Butch Wynegar

  • 1B- Cotton Nash

  • 2B- Augie Ojeda

  • 3B- Chip Hale

  • SS- Zoilo Versalles

  • LF- Butch Huskey

  • CF- Kirby Puckett

  • RF- Bernardo Brito

  • DH- Chili Davis

Bench

  • C- Corky Miller

  • IF- Cleatus Davidson

  • IF- Brian Dinkelman

  • OF- Bombo Rivera

  • OF- Quinton McCracken

Rotation

  • SP- Boof Bonser

  • SP- R.A. Dickey

  • SP- Jim Kaat

  • SP- Mudcat Grant
