1. Babe
2. Lou
3. Mick
4 Yogi (if you disagree, ask Stengel)
5. Dago
6. Jeter
7. Whitey
8. Dickey
9. Mo
10. Gomez

Dago comment aside, I think the above list is pretty close to perfect (at least 1 - 8). I would find a way to get Red Ruffing in there. I don't mean to start a philosophical debate, but I think a starting pitcher's job is lots tougher than a closer's. I know the modern game necessitates having a good closer and all. But I would remove Mo, bump Gomez up to #9 and make Ruffing #10.
