If I missed a mention sorry but some of those early and mid 50s Yankees teams with Mantle, Berra, and Ford have to be up there; each time had a bunch of star level players in addition.

I think there were several Giants teams with Mays, MicCovey, Cepeda, Marichal and Perry as well as Matty and Felipe Alou and Billy Pierce..

The 1964 club would have Pierce and no Spahn, but you get Duke Snider thrown in. Spahn or Pierce + Snider is a tough pick. The Giants probably have the most "great players for other teams who barely played for them" guys in baseball history.

The early 1960s New York Mets had lots of great players (Gil Hodges, Warren Spahn, Yogi Berra, Duke Snider, etc.) all managed by Casey Stengel, with George Weiss as GM. Unfortunately, they were all over the hill!

The 2014 Tigers had a rotation that consisted of Max Scherzer, Justin Verlander, David Price, Rick Porcello - all Cy Young winners, plus Robbie Ray. Has there been another team with 5 Cy Young winners on the same roster?
