All-Time Teams Team (Baseball)

It's easy, you study the game, you read about it. There's tons of books, newspaper articles, and a bit of footage on these guys. If you have interest in the sport, then you'll study the game.

 

I see a few problems. You have multiple players from the Yankees, Braves, and Giants, plus you have George Brett, a Kansas City Royal, which is not one of the original 16 teams. You aren't trying to just make an all-time team. You are trying to do so without repeating teams, and only using the original 16 teams from 1901-60.

 

There are a lot of rules on this thread.

 

How does that solve the problem? Ruth, A-Rod, Rivera, Henderson all played for the Yankees. Same thing with Mays and Bonds played for the Giants, and Maddux and Chipper played for the Braves.

 

I am bending the rules somewhat. Like it or don't.

C - Josh Gibson
1B - Hank Greenberg
2B - Jackie Robinson
3B - Mike Schmidt
SS - John Henry Lloyd
LF - Hank Aaron
CF - Willie Mays
RF/SP - George H. Ruth
SP - Smoky Joe Williams
SP - Bob Feller
SP - Greg Maddux
CL - Robert Groves aka Lefty Grove
IF - Honus Wagner
IF - Alex Rodriguez
IF - Cal Ripken Jr.
OF/DH - Ted Williams

 

I know you bended the rules, but I really like the make-up of your line-up starman. You have arguably the two best Home Run hitters of all-time in Ruth and Gibson, you have the best shortstop to ever play in the Negro Leagues in Pop.

Just a quick question though, why did you go with Smoky Joe instead of Satchel?

 

Ha. You assumed I read all of the silly rules and parameters you invented.

 

you're, not your. pique, not peak.

 

Well he also says "you bended the rules," so proper English doesn't appear to be a requirement.
