<div id="post_message_6799">Let's pretend you could have a draft that included all MLB players throughout history. Who would make a spot on one of these 24 teams? Who is the best of the best at each position... I'm mostly looking at total careers, however if a player had a particularly great season or 2 or 3 (like Maris 61 in 61 or Gagne in 03 or Earl Webb hitting 67 doubles in 1931) we certainly can name those guys too. The purpose for this exercise is I am playing a simulated baseball game and am trying to put together a league of 24 fairly evenly matched teams featuring the greatest of all time. The positions that are obviously a little tougher to fill are 2B,SS,3B and C. Pitching is tough too as if each team has a 5 man rotation that would require 120 pitchers... Anyway hoping to get some input and spark some interest. Thanks</div>
You could start an all-time draft and see if people will sign up for a team. We did an NBA GM draft that was pretty popular.... I'd play </p>
Gehrig, Cobb, Ruth, Dutchman, and today Rivera, Bonds, A-Rod are locks, along with others.</p> I'd get you a better list, but I'm tired.</p>
Mine too. What you do is start a "all-time MLB GM draft signup" thread and see who is interested. You probably want to "add to favorites" the thread and bump it every couple hours so everyone gets a good chance to see it (it'd be on the home page).</p> Oddly, I'm not a fan of any Boston or New England team - I just like the show and Shatner in particular.</p> </p>
