When was the last time a MLB team had three future HOFers at the top of their batting order?

The 1983 Phillies had Morgan,Rose, Schmidt, Perez. (obviously Rose never made it in, but at the time he was a "future hall of famer" based on his accomplishments)

Rollins 3.4>maybe

Harold “WTF” Baines has the lowest bWAR/162 for a HOF’er with 2.2

Griffeylbatted first in the batting order?
No, it would probably be ARod,Griffey,Edgar and they would be 2-3-4 with a speed guy leading off. (and ARod is another one of those "future hall of famers" that didn't actually make it)

'85 Yankees had Rickey, Don Mattingly, Dave Winfield

Not all HOFers, but the one who wasn't won MVP

Baerga really screwed it up but....1-7. Nowadays this lineup would be a joke bc your best hitters are usually 1-4 but Ramirez and Thome were young...now this was just the 1995 Indians

Lofton
Vizquel
Baerga
Belle
Murray
Thome
Ramirez

1996 Indians they were batting Thome in the 8. WTF. The next year Thome was in the 4, Baerga still in the 3 slot and no Lofton or Murray
