Bahahaha. I love that casual "yeah I just caught your star player's pop up" smirk he gives the crowd before realizing his mistake.

The top 3 batters in the majors, that aren't Blue Jays, have 280.

Has any team in the majors ever finished with three hitters that all have 30 or more HR and 100 or more RBIs?

Yeah, Gose had talent, but he's exactly the kind of player the Jays had lots of. Talented guy who just didn't seem to give a fata. That's where guys like Donaldson, Martin, and now Tulowitzky and Price are changing that culture.

I think the Jays had a lineup like that in 00 or so. Back in the days of steroids...those were like a guy hitting 20 and 80 today.
Delgado, Brad Fullmer, and Tony Batista all were 30-100 guys.

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)

This is like watching the Flames and the Oilers...
One team cares, plays hard, and does all the little things right.
The other team, not so much

There is one player in the major leagues with 100 RBIs.
There is one player in the major leagues with 100 runs scored.
And they're the same guy.
