What would be your perfect starting lineup for the MLB ? Include 5 Starters?
Question:
Answers:
Three Baseball Players that played in the Major Leagues in another Major Sport.?
SS Jose ReyesSCF Grady SizemoreL
1B Albert Pujols R
DH David Ortiz L
LF Manny RamirezR
RF Vladimir GuerreroR
3B Alex RodriguezR
2B Alfonso SorianoR
C Joe MauerL
I'm not sure of my entire lineup because I would consider taking out Reyes and putting Soriano higher. I'd like to have both speed and power that high in the lineup. For my lineup, I looked for power, speed, average, and some defensive ability. Ramirez is the one I'm the most unsure about.
My rotation would be:
Santana
Carpenter
Oswalt
Webb
Halladay
5 lowest ERAs last year. I like Peavy and Lackey, but the aforementioned five are probably more of a sure thing.
1- cf alfonso soriano
2- 2b jose reyes
3-ss derek jeter
4-lf barry bonds
5-1b david ortiz
6-3b a rod
7-c paul loduca
8-rf ken griffey jr
9-p anybody like clemens or glavine
C- Lo Duca
1b-Pujols
2b- Utley
ss- Jeter
3b- Cabrara
LF- Vlad
CF- A Jones
RF- Ichiro
SP- Johan
SP- Carpenter
SP- Maddux (for veteran leadership over staff)
SP- Lackey
SP- Halladay
CP- Rivera
Are the twins world series caliber?

OF Vladimir Guererro
OF Alfonso Soriano
DH David Ortiz
P Johan Santana
P Roy Halladay
P Carlos Zambrano
P Chris Carpenter
P Jake Peavy
Among current players and understanding that this isn't a fantasy team these guys have to play defensively as well:
Ichiro RF (great hitter and the best arm in baseball)
Jose Reyes SS (nothing this kid can't do)
ARod 3B (perhaps the best hitter in every month not October)
Albert Pujols 1B (consistency puts him ahead of Howard)
Joe Mauer C (might break all piazzas records for c's)
Vlad Guerrero LF (every year 300-30-110 great arm)
Carl Crawford CF ( how good would he be on a good team)
Chase Uttley 2B (the difference between him and #2 at 2B is staggering)
pitchers;
Johann Santana (the very best without question)
Jeremy Bonderman (lost in the Verlander hype last year)
Chris Carpenter (assume he's healthy)
John Smoltz (because you didnt ask for closers, he'll do)
Scott Kazmir (He needs outta TB, too much pressure there)
Who is/was the model used for the Major League Baseball logo?
1. Ichiro CF, L2. Soriano 2B, R
3. Pujols 1B, R
4. Ryan Howard DH, L
5. Big Bad Vlad RF, R
6. Manny LF, R
7. Arod 3B, R
8. Mauer C, L
9. Jeter SS, R
Speed and average at top and bottom, Major power in the middle, pretty good Left-Right breakdown and a good fielding team to boot.
Pitchers: Santana, Clemens (if he'd play) and any other top starters: Halladay, Oswalt, Webb, etc.
Going to flip this question - as it wasn't specific.
C-Mike Piazza
1B-Albert Pujols/Frank Thomas (people forget how gr8 he was)
2B-Robbie Alomar
SS-Alex Rodriguez
3B-George Brett (i'll take contact over M. Schmidths power)
RF-Vladi Guerrero
CF-Ricky Henderson (a force that baseball may nver see again 135SBs in a season..amazing)
LF-Barry Bonds (possibly the greatest hitter of this era, forget the roids issue,,,still got to put bat to ball)
DH-Tony Gwynn (great ballplayer)
Starting 5:
SP1-Orel Hershiser (nasty stuff)
SP2-Greg Maddux
SP3-Roger Clemens
SP4-David Cone (jus like coney)
SP5-Jack Morris or Dave Stewart (big game pitchers)
RP1-Mariano Rivera..

Short: Jeter
Center: Damon
Left: Matsui
