Posted By: <b>runscott&nbsp; </b><p>Well, my Dis-Astros are finally gone, so I'm pulling for my #2 NL and AL teams: Cubs and Red Sox.<BR><BR>I still have my 1973 copy of the Sports Illustrated All-Time All Star game - this is an absolute classic and must have if you are a baseball game collector, but leaves out 19th century and stops at '73. Thoughts on all-time pre-war teams for Cubs and Red Sox franchises?<BR><BR>BOSTON<BR><BR>P Young,Wood,Leonard<BR>C Ferrell<BR>1B Foxx<BR>2B Doerr<BR>3B Collins<BR>SS Cronin<BR>OF Speaker<BR>OF Hooper<BR>OF Williams<BR>

Posted By: <b>John(z28jd)</b><p>albie,youre putting chance ahead of anson on your team?<BR><BR> i would also put Jimmy Ryan ahead of either Cuyler or Stephenson. i would take Bill Dahlen over tinker any day<BR><BR>and where the heck is Larry Corcoran on your team! pre war doesnt mean after 1900

Posted By: <b>Kevin Cummings</b><p>John:<BR><BR>I'll add Larry Corcoran to the team as a short reliever since he was probably under 5' 5" tall and had a short (5 year) career! <img src="/images/happy.gif" height=14 width=14>

Posted By: <b>Albie O'Hanian</b><p>John - You are correct, I ignored anyone that played pre-1902. Given that I would take Anson over Chance but that would be the only change I would make.

Posted By: <b>Brian H</b><p>Kevin's is close to mine. I would add:<BR>Spalding to the Pitching staff<BR>Van Haltren or Gore in the OF (Schulte wasn't that great for very long). <BR>Maybe Ross Barnes at 2B.<BR>Also I wonder if at least one of the Evers Tinker Chance trio should make the team ?<BR>
