I'll take Gene Tenace at catcher, Ron Santo at third and Bert Blyleven as my pitcher and I will still beat anyone who has left Babe Ruth and Honus Wagner on the table for me to pick. We can quibble about who was the best at any other positions, but not those two - and by HUGE margins.

Gehrig

I'll take Gene Tenace at catcher,
