I'm confused....you're a Brewers fan, but you only have one former Brewer on your list.
My List:
C: Jorge Posada
1B: Tino Martinez/ Donnie Baseball
2B: Craig Biggio
3B: Scott Rolen
SS: Derek Jeter
LF: Ricky Ledee (But where is he now?)
CF: Bernie Williams
RF: Paul O' Neill
SP: Andy Pettitte (Despite my dislike of him skipping town for Houston few years back)
RP: Mariano Rivera
Seems pretty standard, but they're the guys I've grown up watching.

Yes, I'm a Brewers fan but I'm not obliged to like them anymore than other players for opposing teams.
There's only a handful of Brewers worth noting on the list but I like other players better (Cecil Cooper, Robin Yount, Rollie Fingers, Gorman Thomas, Greg Vaughn).
Look at my list again and think of the Milwaukee Brewers. Do we really have that many players that I could like more than the guys on my list?

Griffey is the GOAT IMO. He is/was/ and always will be a BEAST!!!!
And his video games are awesome

A part of me wants to say that if Griffey JR was not your favorite player during his prime, then you were deprived. Robin Ventura and Nomar Garciaparra are two other answers id give. In five years it will be Vlad the Imapler.
