To keep this simple, I will refrain from including banned players in my choices.

Managers: Your choice of Herzog/Southworth/Williams to be swapped for Billy Martin. How is Billy not in Cooperstown?

20th century player: Get rid of Tony Perez. Enshrine Hodges. I'd love to see Dwight Evans get inducted, but that's highly unlikely and more of a personal preference, which shouldn't count here.

19th: As others have said, oust Tommy McCarthy. Will White deserves to be let in. His stats speak for themselves, as (almost) do those of his brother. Either way, I'd put Will in before Deacon. I'd settle for Tony Mullane, though!

Umps: I don't know who I would replace, but any umpire other than Klem (and perhaps Connolly) pales in comparison to Hank O'Day.

Execs: Bulkeley's induction is a joke, and apparently erroneous. Marvin Miller would get my nod. I don't necessarily like certain aspects that changed because of his involvement, but a definite trailblazer nevertheless.

Negro Leaguers: Don't get me started!
