Who would be your LF'er if you had to pick by position played?

i had`nt thought that far ahead

C: Yogi Berra
1B: Lou Gehrig
2B: Tony Lazzeri
SS: Derek Jeter
3B: Alex Rodriguez (seeing as how he's going to be here for the next decade, I'm no longer reluctant to put him here)
LF: Mickey Mantle (DiMaggio was a better defensive CFer, but you can't have Mantle not in the lineup)
CF: Joe DiMaggio
RF: Babe Ruth

This would be my second team:

C: Bill Dickey (next would be Thurman Munson, Jorge Posada, Elston Howard)
1B: Don Mattingly
2B: Joe Gordon (sorry Willie Randolph)
SS: Phil Rizzuto (don't forget about Roger Peckinpaugh)
3B: Graig Nettles
LF: Charlie Keller (narrowly over Roy White)
CF: Bernie Williams (next would be Earle Combs, Bobby Murcer)
RF: Dave Winfield (over Roger Maris, Tommy Henrich, Paul O'Neill)

That first lineup is pretty amazing. I have six of those players among the 25 best players of all time: Ruth, Mantle, Gehrig, DiMaggio, Rodriguez, and Berra.

Here is my lineup by batting order::

1. Lazzeri 2b
2. Jeter ss
3, Mantle cf
4. Ruth rf
5. Gehrig 1b
6. DiMaggio lf
7, Berra c
8. Rolfe 3b
9. Ford p

All multiple WS champions. The reason baseball is played.

The most difficult part is picking a leadoff hitter. I'll go with

Jeter ss
Lazzeri 2b
Ruth rf
Gehrig 1b
Dimaggio cf
Mantle lf
Berra c
Nettles 3b
Ford p

If you wanted to include a dh

Jeter ss
Lazzeri 2b
Ruth lf
Gehrig 1b
Jackson rf
Dimaggio cf
Mantle dh
Berra c
Nettles 3b

I put Mantle as dh because injuries slowed him down. Ruth played both left and right, while Reggie was primarily right. If you would rather, Reggie can be dh and the positions would be the same as the first lineup, with the order as above.
Give me another year or two and I'll put ARod at third. For some reason, I still have difficulty listing him as an all time Yankee, as much as I love him in pinstripes.

[Jose Tartabul]

Whitey Ford lhp
Mel Stottlemeyer rhp
Mario Rivera rp
Elston Howard c
Don Mattingly 1b
Bobby Richardson 2b
Alex Rodriguez 3b
Derek Jeter ss
Reggie Jackson lf
Mickey Mantle cf
Dave Winfield rf

So many years, so many great players. I only listed the guys I actually saw play.
