Anson doesn't make it, despite the OPS+ he can't get by Foxx.  Lajoie/Morgan, in that order, are the new second basemen for the all time team.  ARod's the new shortstop; Ripken's career value can't get him by Vaughan, but does move him past Banks.  There's not really a meaningful difference between Robinson and Ott; I'll put them in the corners for now and Mantle's the new CF and my inclination is to say he's the best player on the list so far.  Johnson/Spahn in that order are the arms to consider from this section.  I'll slide in the Unit after Pedro; Spahn becomes the top guy for the B team.  20 guys left.
