OK, this is something I have often wondered, but never had a legit locked down answer.

 

What MLB team had the most fathers of future MLB players on it?

 

What MLB team had the most sons of former MLB players on it?

 

And (assuming there is a season), will the 2020 Blue Jays have the first ever infield where all 4 starters (Travis Shaw, Cavan Biggio, Bo Bichette, Vlad Guerrero Jr.) are sons of former major leaguers?

It has to be yes on the Blue Jays.

 

I think it might be. Even the Reds couldn't get one together with two Boone's in the lineup.

 

The Big Red Machine had handful of MLB dads, including Griffey Sr. , Pete Rose, Tony Perez, Pedro Borbon Sr, Ross Grimsley and Ed Sprague. But I think only 5 of them were ever teammates at once.

 

I remember one year the Dodgers had 4 shortstops in Spring Training and all were sons of Major Leaguers. But they weren't all starting in the infield at once...
