All Time Reds Team

I saw this on the Orioles Board and thought it would be a fun thing
to do to generate some discussion on the Board.

Pick your all time player at each position plus at least a couple more
who could also be considered "all time best."

1B: Tony Perez
Ted Kluzewski
Lee May

2B:Bid McPhee
Joe Morgan
Ron Oester

SS:Barry Larkin
Dave Concepcion
Tommy Corcoran

3B:Hick Carpenter
Chris Sabo
Heinie Groh

C:Johnny Bench
Ernie Lombardi
Bubbles Hargrave

OF:Pete Rose
Vada Pinson
Frank Robinson
Edd Roush
George Foster
Gus Bell
Ken Griffey Sr.
Eric Davis

SP:Eppa Rixey
Tony Mullane
Will White
Jim Maloney
Noodles Hahn
Joe Nuxhall
Gary Nolan
Tom Browning

RP:John Franco
Clay Carroll
Pedro Borbon
Danny Graves
Rob Dibble

A lot of these players are from the early years of the Redlegs/Red Stockings
but they all played a lot of years and had a lot success with the organization,
as a whole. I have left off some players that were very successful with the
team, but played only a short time with them.

Some deserving mention include Dave Parker, Cesar Geronimo, Tommy Helms,
Billy Hatcher, Johnny Van Der Meer and others as well.

Of course it goes without mentioning it that the all time skipper of the Reds
would have to be Sparky Anderson- the greatest all time manager in Major League Baseball(IMHO).
