Greatest Fantasy Baseball Team of All-Time...

Who would you have on a composite All-Time great Baseball Fantasy Team (players in their prime of course)?

I think front runner would have to be Ty Cobb (AVG, Runs, RBI, and Mega steals...all but HRs), Sandy Koufax (W, ERA, K's and Whip),

Mays (his steal count was low by todays standards but he would produce in all categories), Ruth, Foxx, , Williams would all be bying for an OF spot...

"Rajah" Hornsby would have to go high at second...

Eck would have a very low whip, and help in saves, ERA and K's...

You can't have Sandy Koufax and Ty Cobb on the same team.

Not as much power, but higher average...probably would come down to what your team is lacking more in average or power...
