The bench is not necessarily the best 5 non-starters, but is the best possible bench such that each position has a backup plan.

Is this just by total WAR? Because the best possible starting OF for the Pirates would probably be Kiner/Bonds/Clemente from left to right. Kiner and Bonds were much better than Clarke and Carey but probably had a lower total WAR due to shorter time with Pirates.

Yes, it is by total WAR, with a minimum of 1500 PAs with the team. If you wanted to go by average WAR, they would be the top 3, but none of them have enough playing time in CF to be put there so I would still end up dumping Bonds for Carey.

I can't fathom an all time team of the Pirates without Pie Traynor or Paul Waner.

@Rubble: It appears a made a slight error by omitting Waner. I will make the necessary fix. Traynor, however, is just short of making the team.
