Dahlen and Ferrell would both be in my top 37.

Along with:

Barry Bonds
Roger Clemens
Bob Caruthers
Charlie Buffinton
Urban Shocker
Jim McCormick
Jeff Bagwell
Mike Mussina
Curt Schilling
Mike Piazza
Kevin Brown
Rick Reuschel
Ivan Rodriguez
Larry Walker
Tommy Bond
Noodles Hahn
Bobby Grich
Tony Mullane
Luis Tiant
Dave Stieb
Bobby Mathews
Minnie Minoso
Tim Raines
Fred McGriff
Lou Whitaker
Alan Trammell
Reggie Smith
Dick Allen
Willie Randolph
Ken Boyer
Sal Bando
Ron Guidry
Mark McGwire
Keith Hernandez
Edgar Martinez

There. Something everyone can disagree with.
If you want to dilute that much, I would rank Hodges, Oliva and Garvey above some of those names. As well as John and Kaat.
