Turns out it was Junior, Edgar, Ichiro, Felix.  Mojo, Rick, Grizzle, and Spectator 1/2 ('Randy vs Ichiro') called it.  LINK TO ARTICLE

G's point about 'renting' Ichiro weighs - the other guys are homegrown - but you could argue that we actually get *more* merit for tabbing him, like the Dodgers do Jackie Robinson (who was more of a known quantity at the time).  Also, Ichiro would LOOK great on a 16' high Mt. Rushmore outside the park.  :- ) 

And I'd have Randy Johnson on there #3.

Sure wish they'd PUT a "Mt Rushmore" in the park somewhere.  But they're extremely wary of giving an active player any kind of honor; he could embarrass the organization later.  Usually they watch him with snake eyes for 5-10 years first, to make sure he's a Buhner/Wilson.  But, if it's me, the monument goes up immediately.  Would sure beat a '1997 Division Champs' flag...
