Looks like we are agreed on Cy [Young], Nolan [Ryan], Sandy [Koufax], Dennis[Eckersley], and Greg [Maddux], leaving us to pick 3 from: Tom [Seaver], Phil [Niekro], Warren [Spahn], Randy [Johnson], Christy [Mathewson], and Walter [Johnson]. I would also like to throw in Lefty [Grove], and Satchel [Paige]. Now, I think its important not just to have the best pitchers but also to have names that people recognize/interesting names (sorry Tom and Walter). I think Phil, Lefty, and Satchel would round out the map well, though Randy might be more recognizable.
Does anyone have a problem with Yogi [Berra] at catcher, Lou [Gehrig] at first, Jackie [Robinson]at second, Wade [Boggs] at third, Ozzie [Smith] at short, Ted [Williams] in left, Willie [Mays] in center, Hank [Aaron] in right, and Babe [Ruth] batting?
