All-time Cincinnati Reds team

[Knick9]

What's your All-time Cincinnati Reds team? You can choose who you think were good players in a Reds uni for the majority of their careers. You can choose from the time that they were the Reds from 1890-1952,Redlegs from 1953-1958, and the Reds again from 1959-present.

Interesting choises, but Klu never played a single game in the outfield. If you want to keep the same players in your starting lineup, you could do it though, by switching Perez to third, Klu to first, and Rose to the outfield.

Can a mod who is knowledgabke about Reds history add a poll to this thread?

I want the results for the All-Time position by position battle. I have a thread about it in the history forum if you're interested.
