    Altuve needs three more seasons like his last five to be remembered as an all time great.
    Just talking modern era there's Morgan, Sandberg and Alomar.
    The next tier down, there's Biggio and Jeff Kent.
    That's it, put Carew in there if you want too.
    I'm excluding Robinson Cano from this list, close but no cigar.

    Greatest ever?
    Hornsby and Jackie Robinson.
