Baseball's All Time Team

Sports Illustrated recently printed what they thought was Baseball's All Time Team. For the most part I'd agree but I do have some quesitions

John McGraw (Manager)
Joe McCarthy (Coach)
Casey Stengel (Coach)

Warren Spahn (Pitcher)
Dennis Echersley (Pitcher)
Cy Young (Pitcher)
Roger Clemens (Pitcher)
Lefty Grove (Pitcher)
Mariano Rivera (Pitcher)
Christy Mathewson (Pitcher)
Walter Johnson (Pitcher)
Sandy Koufax (Pitcher)

What about Seaver, Feller, or Gibson? (Throw out Rivera...Mathewson)

Yogi Berra (Catcher)
Johnny Bench (Catcher)
Lou Gehrig (1B)
Stan Musial (1B)...Musial was an outfielder go with Jimmie Foxx
Jackie Robinson (2B)
Rogers Hornsby (2B)...Joe Morgan by far the best 2B
Honus Wagner (SS)
Alex Rodriquez (SS)...Cal Ripken, A-Fraud has to do something more in the playoffs
Mike Schmidt (3B)
Joe DiMaggio (Outfield)
Ted Williams (Outfield)
Babe Ruth (Outfield)
Willie Mays (Outfield)
Ty Cobb (Outfield)
Mickey Mantle (Outfield)
Hank Aaron (Outfield)
