Hello I also had the thought of taking the best teams in history and having a tournament and play one of the teams, and it has turned into a once a year thing, the first time and every time I have played it out I go by decades, from the first year like 1901 to 1909 then 1921 - 29 and so on, that years world series winners would square off in a double loss elimination tourney, then after I accumulated a winner for every decade played them off in a double loss elim, these were the decade winners https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIl..._as=subscriber

1900's 1907 Chi Cubs
1910's - 1913 A's
1920's - 25 Pirates, I was shocked too,
1930's - 30 Pha A's
1940's - 48 Indians then 42 Cards
1950's - 56 Yankees
1960's - 68 Tigers my team
1970's - 71 Pirates upset the Orioles who upset the Reds
1980's 89 A's then 84 Tigers My team too!.
1990's 98 Yankees of course
2000's 06 Cards,
2010's - 16 Cubs I played it down and posted the games on YouTube but the best thing about it was my team the 1968 Detroit Tigers beat the 1989 A's in the finals, I just got lucky because in the 2 that have followed I went out in 2 so you never know, but it is a lot of fun for stat heads like myself. I guess I had to share that info with somebody, or what's the point, right? thanks I WOULD SAY THAT AT THAT LEVEL ANY GIVEN TEAM CAN BEAT ANY TEAM ON ANY GIVEN DAY, it matters most who are the hottest at that particular time.
