Just checking the MLB records. I decided to go for 30 HR and 120 RBI for now, just to see what I find. So far I've found two teams with 3 players with 30 or more HR and 120 or more RBI.
1956 - Brooklyn Dodgers
1996 - Colorado Rockies (should have know a Rockies team would be on the list).
I'll edit this to add more teams as I find them.
EDIT
1996 - Seattle Mariners
MLB.com shows the top 1000 all-time hitters in a given category, and that cuts off RBI at 109. So here's teams that have had 3 players with 30 or more HR and 110 or more RBI.
1996 - Cleveland Indians
1996 - Colorado Rockies (4 players!)
1997 - Colorado Rockies
1999 - Colorado Rockies
2000 - Houston Astros
2001 - Oakland A's
1929 - Philadelphia Phillies
2004 - St. Louis Cardinals
The Jays have never had a team with 3 hitters with 30 or more HR and 110 or more RBI. The closest:
1999 - Carlos Delgado (44 HR 134 RBI), Shawn Green (42 HR 123 RBI). 3rd place that season was Tony Batista (26 HR 79 RBI, but in only 98 games)
2000 - Carlos Delgado (41 HR 137 RBI), Tony Batsista (41 HR 114 RBI). 3rd place that season was Brad Fullmer (32 HR 104 RBI -- good memory, Sylvanfan!)
2003 - Carlos Delgado (42 HR 145 RBI), Vernon Wells (33 HR 117 RBI). 3rd place that season was Josh Phelps (20 HR 66 RBI)
