No, no Maris for the Cardinals. Musial, Brock, McGee, Slaughter, and Medwick, at least, would be strong candidates for my Cardinals, outfield-wise. Musial can also play first, when Pujols isn't playing first or in the outfield, and is playing third. Catchers would have to include Yadier Molina, and since Porter is gone, perhaps the catcher for the Cardinals in the 1940's or the one in the 1920's and/or 1930's would be good picks here for them, if not Matheny, in my view. Second base Hornsby and Schoendienst, for sure, shortstops Marion and Ozzie, Pepper Martin possibly third base and outfielder, at least. Other potential Cardinals first basemen possibilities include Mize and Bottomley, at least, for sure, even with Cepeda gone.
McGwire can also play third, I believe, for the Athletics. Dave Stewart might be good for the Athletics too, if memory serves. Cone should be on the Mets or Yankees, I think.
Yes, WBF43 is right, Foxx should be on the Athletics too. If you're having Collins, you have to have Foxx on the Athletics. I'm sure there are better options at shortstop than Campaneris and/or Tejada for them, too. You should consider dumping Canseco and Rudi, while you're at it here, perhaps. Surely there are much better outfielder options to go with Reggie Jackson and Rickey Henderson and Al Simmons here for the Athletics. Hendricks is probably too recent to make the team here, and I think he played with the Cubs longer. Hunter probably wouldn't fit the Yankees with all their great pitching, so this might be a good choice for him here. I believe Rube Marquand also played for the Athletics, if memory serves here.
Tenace and Steinbach are good picks for the Athletics, if Cochrane's on the Tigers, I believe. Just my views here on the Cardinals and other teams, that's all. CD out.
