Best of Baseball (and backups)


And now, for another list.  If I could pick my all-time, all star team, with backups:








First Base
  Hank Greenberg - the Hebrew hammer
  Lou Gehrig - the ironman

Second Base
  Ryne Sandberg - Ryno
  Jackie Robinson - a hero

Third Base
  Pete Rose - hits king, should be in hall
  Alex Rodriguez - will break all records

Shortstop
  Ozzie Smith - the Wiz
  Ernie Banks - Mr. Cubbie

Left Field
  Ricky Henderson - rewrote how to play ball
  Ted Williams - Teddy Ballgame

Center Field
  Joe DiMaggio - here's to you...
  Willie Mays - say hey

Right Field
  Barry Bonds - greatest ever, regardless of steroids
  Babe Ruth - saved baseball

Catcher
  Johnny Bench - no one's come close
  Yogi Berra - it ain't over, 'till it's over...

Pitcher
  Sandy Koufax - Lefty
  Nolan Ryan - best ever
  Tom Seaver - Tom Terrific
  Bob Gibson - intimidating
  Greg Maddux - only Nolan is better
