As avid Boxers are no doubt aware after reading Scott Lucas' roundup today, the Jays have acquired .091-hitting Frank Menechino to temporarily address their "short"comings.

Frankly (heh), that just cries out for another edition of Baseball's Hall of Names. Menechino probably won't make the cut, but here's one stab at what may be a first: Baseball's All-Frank Team.

It's actually a nice team; this list sticks solely to Franks who at some point made an All-Star team or the Hall of Fame. Who else should be frank-further considered?
