Tbf I feel like using guys like this ruins the point of doing an all time team but go for it.

I agree. Not sure why Eck is on that list. I remember him well.

Benito Santiago. You gotta have a catcher and he is the only one that works

Ohh! Did not know he played for Cubs. Was using a cap for catcher.

Cap is a fine option too. Just name him Geovanny Soto. But yeah benito played there in 1999

Or Randy Hundley. He wasn’t a very good hitter but managed an all star appearance and one gold glove. Right now I am using a variation of my own name that the announcer actually knows and speaks.

There is Jody Davis and Gabby Hartnett too. Gabby being the best Cubs catcher of all time.

I have Prior and forgot to list him. The other two are good ones though Like Lou Brock it just feels icky to use Lofton lol.

Juan Pierre had a really good season with the Cubs. Wonder why they traded him. Free agency maybe?

So now, since all these players can’t make the squad, who does? “Gabby Hartnett” CAP wins at catcher, if for no other reason that I do not have Benito, and my CAP is probably better. I am not spending over 200 k for a 91 Pierre. All others can make the team. The only other player that I do not already have is Arietta, but he is a must have and I will get him eventually so he takes up a SP spot.

I use a all cubs team as well. I Use jimmy fox at catcher. Jim Edmonds in left, Brock and Dawson in center. Carlos Gonzalez and Bryant platoon rf . Happ and candelario play 3rd banks ss hornsby lemahieu 2b. McGriff castellanos 1b. My bench I mix and match using Hayward billy Williams baez sandberg lofton Pierre Murphy zobrist joe Carter nico kingman rizzo cliff floyd.
Pitching I go arrieta darvish hamels Maddux wood. I also use mills Lester Hendricks and Jenkins. Relief I use goose lee smith sutter Kimbrel eckersley Chapman Davis. I also will throw plesac and kintzler and Rodney in if my pen is drained.

I decided to leave out guys who played poorly while with the Cubs (Brock), or played for the Cubs at the end of their careers for just a short time (Foxx). So Brock, Foxx, CarGo, Edmonds, etc are out. Hamels, Lester, Hendricks, Jenkins, Kintzler, Prior, and Hayward did not make the team, for now, but I will sub them in. I do not have Goose or Zobrist. I did not realize Hornsby played so well for the Cubs (MVP in 1929) and for several years. He easily made the team.
