I'm gonna take two aces, and production at positions that are hard to find production at, and gamble that I can find some power bats between 1B, 3B, RF and LF.

Prince is great, but it looks like something is trying to escape from his shirt when he is running. I think he's going to have to find a way to lose some of that flubber unless he wants a short career.

I guess you haven't been on the board long enough. And yes, it is.

Get 20+ years out of each and maybe two hands full of championships.

Just for fun, I've decided to make a team that wouldn't be FA eligible at the end of this season, even though we aren't paying attention to the contracts.

 

Joe Mauer

Hanley Ramirez

Miguel Cabrera

Jake Peavy

Felix Hernandez (real surprised at the lack of love for him)

[Bixby]

Albert Pujols

Derek Jeter

Miguel Cabrera

Johan Santana

Carlos Zambrano

I did that too (I think).

 

And came up with five different players. My team's better. :P

 

Albert Pujols

Grady Sizemore

Jose Reyes

Rich Hill

Cole Hamels

[don_kessinger_was_good]

I'm late to this, but I'll play, having not looked at any of the other lists besides those that appeared on this last page:

 

1. Jose Reyes

2. Johan Santana

3. Jake Peavy

4. Alex Rodriguez

5. Albert Pujols

 

Almost: Justin Verlander, Justin Morneau.

[Bote McBoteface]

Johan Santana

Francisco Liriano

Joe Maur

Delmon Young

Miguel Cabrera

[Omar]

Jose Reyes

Johan Santana

Joe Mauer

Mark Teixeira

David Wright

 

Strong infield.

[TruffleShuffle]

if we're playing all time, I go:

 

Ruth

Teddy Ballgame

Mays

Wagner

Walter Johnson

[soccer10k]

Assuming we're talking about starting a franchise...

 

Johan Santana

Jake Peavy

Miguel Cabrera (I don't care if he's seemingly putting on a pound a day)

Albert Pujols

Hanley Ramirez (debated for a few minutes on this one but took him over Sizemore and Wright)

[soccer10k]

if we're playing all time, I go:

 

Ruth

Teddy Ballgame

Mays

Wagner

Walter Johnson

 

All-time

 

Ted Williams (best hitter of all time IMO and his counting stats would be better if he didn't miss 3 prime years ages 24-26 because he fought in the war)

Babe Ruth (right up there with Williams)

Lou Gehrig (rate stats are as good as any and his counting stats would have been better if not for the disease)

Pedro Martinez (was absolutely dominant during the steroids era especially 1997-2003)

Greg Maddux (dominant for a number of years)

 

I realize (after I chose the three) that I picked the top 3 guys in OPS and three of the top four in OPS+ all time for the hitters but that was unintentional.

[cubsfan5150]

I would take the top five starting pitchers in the game... off the top of my head:

 

Johan Santana

Roy Oswalt

Zambrano

Halliday

Sabathia or Verlander

 

in 2-3 years youd be sinking 90 mil+ per year into your starting rotation.

 

 

Well worth it.

If you could pick any 5 players in the game, one of them would be Theriot? Holy crap. With that sort of raging man love, I'd think your name would be "theriot1" or "ryan4ever"
