They definitely put up numbers and they're great players, but I guess I dont think of them as the super elite type players. I'd put Jeter, Ichiro, Clemens, Oswalt, Mariano Rivera and Derrick Lee ahead of those guys.
Just my two cents though.
Derek Jeter over Miguel Cabrera? You're high.
Miguel Cabrera will be 23 years old next year, he already has two 33 HR seasons along with two seasons with 112RBI+ and a .300 career batting average. He put up a .947 OPS last season at the age of 22, if you consider Pujols to be elite then you have to put Cabrera in there.
