Your all time Starting lineup

[kevinlenane]

I love that Ted Williams add at DH. He's my number 2 there if Ruth had to be there(aka the second best pure hitter. Id want to put him in the OF w Cobb and Ruth but Willie Mays has to get the nod there given the other tools.

[glynparson]

1b- Gehrig
2b- Hornsby
SS- Wagner
3b- Schmidt
Of- Ruth, Mays, Bonds
C- Johnny Bench
RP- Walter Hohnson
LP- Koufax
Relief- Rivera

1b - Joe Adcock
2b - Red Schoendienst
SS - Johnny Logan
3b - Eddie Mathews
C- Del Crandall
RF - Hank Aaron
CF - Billy Bruton
LF - Wes Covington

And Hurricane Hazel off the bench?

Very interesting that the player with the highest % of HOF votes for quite some time (held that mark for 24 years) is not mentioned on anyone's ballot.

Tom Seaver.

There are several other RHPs listed multiple times above (Ryan, Maddux, Gibson, Johnson, etc) that fell below Tom Terrific in HOF voting. I would have thought he would have shown up on at least some lists.

Here's mine:

LHP - Unit (barely over Carlton)
RHP - Ryan (barely over Seaver)
C - Bench - (the non-pereil)
1B - Gehrig (with Pujols right behind)
2B - Morgan (with Hornsby right behind)
SS - Wagner (with Rip right behind)
3B - Brett (picture under 'ball player' in the dictionary)
LF - Bonds (7x MVP)
CF - Mays (best all around player, ever)
RF - Ruth (what can I say, changed the game)
Closer - Mo (Mr. 100%)
DH/PH - Teddy Ballgame (best hitter ever)
Manager - Sparky
