As I was watching the Cubs game yeterday verses the Milwaukee Brewers I started thinking about all those players I have wathed over the last 25 years as a Cubs fan. I thought man that is a lot of different players, as any Cubs fan knows. Then I thought, self what is the top Cubs players you have seen during that time? So here goes.
Cather: Jody Davis- Jody may have not had awesome numbers but he was the steadiest cather over that period.
1st Base: Mark Grace- Need I say more about Gracie. One of the best ever.
2nd Base: Ryne Sandberg- The best ever! nuf said.
Shortstop: Shawon Dunston- Athleticism, range and offense.
3rd Base: Ron Cey - Yeah he came from the Dodgers but still best if seen.
OF: Andre Dawson - The Hawk, great in Montreal even better in Wrigley.
OF: Sammy Sosa - Would have been still patroling RF if not for Baker. One of the Best Ever.
OF: Gary Matthews - Sarge was in charge when he roamed LF.
Starter: Greg Maddux - One of the last 300 game winners we may ever see.
Relief: Lee Smith - Still the all-time leader in Saves.
Many other players have come thru the Friendly Confines but these I believe are the best of the last 25 years.
