In today's Game Thread, Spicol poses the opinion-question, "Esteban is the Spanish equivalent of Steve, which, Steve McQueen and Steve Austin aside, really isn't that cool. Or is it, and I've been Miles Davis all these years without knowing it?"

Well, let's see. What does our All-Steve Team look like?

Limiting ourselves to Steves That Made the All-Star Team (and totally eliminating off-spelling Stephens and Estebans and people with family names like Lee Stevens andd Vern Stephens), that leaves us with this a pretty thin team, at first glance -- is Spicol right?

A couple of slots are filled with guys who might've been All-Stars, had things broken differently; these are denoted with an asterisk (*). There is currently just one Steve in the Hall of Fame. Can you name him before scrolling down?

And can we get a little help at shortstop and in the outfield? Don't make me put Steve "Psycho" Lyons out in right ...

C Swisher (Yes, he was too an All-Star once)
1B Garvey
2B Sax
SS
3B Buechele*
LF Kemp
CF Finley
RF
DH Balboni*

Rotation:
Carlton, Rogers, Avery, Busby, Trachsel
Bullpen: Bedrosian, Barber, Hargan, Howe, Ontiveros

Apologies to other All-Star Steves:
Gromek, Stone, Blass

Who else?
