A brief survey of Major League Eddies

Ninety-six men named Eddie have played Major League Baseball since 1871. Be careful - several portions of this list look like someone trying to create ever-more improbable names. How else do you explain the rapid descent into madness (Murray->Stanky->Yost->JOOOOOST) or names like “Fusselback”, “Waitkus”, and “Turchin”?

Eddie Rosario is already the thirteenth-best Eddie in Major League History by fWAR, accumulating 11.4 throughout his career (and seemingly all against his new team). He will turn 29 this season, so it seems fair to guess that he will climb higher on the ladder of Eddies, perhaps into the top ten before his career is over.
