It's clear to me who I want manning the hot corner, George Brett.
Small sample sizes such as "post season batting" can be so misleading. You make it seem as if Brett was somehow Mr. Clutch throughout his career in the post season. What if 1981 playoffs George Brett shows up? 1984? Again, if we are just looking at one game as a sample size and are willing to look at 150 at bats in the playoffs versus an entire career, why not just go with performance in one game? Didn't Rennie Stennett go 8 for 8 one game? That would make him the choice over Hornsby etc.

Now... Brett is a fine choice at third no matter the criteria, especially in his prime. Just don't base it exclusively on what he did in 150 at bats over the course of 12 seasons.

Lf Ricky Henderson
2b honus Wagner
Cf willie mays
Rf hank aaron
DH babe ruth
1b:Lou Gehrig
3b:Chipper jones (homer pick)
SS: Derek jeter
Catcher: Yogi Berra
Pitcher: christy mathewson
Closer: mariano Rivera

Unless I missed it I was the only one so far to pick hank Aaron which surprises me looking at his postseason stats. All a matter of opinion but I expected to see his name more.

Chipper was a Braves fan pick for me. A lot of postseason experience.
Wanted to put tom glavine as my pitcher based solely off of game 6 in 95 and my favorite player of all time but can't deny what Mathewson did in multiple series.

Steve Balboni was known to perform fairly well when there was no pressure. You should have him bat clean-up.
