Power Pros Forum

I have pretty much who I'd want and a top prospect list to replace each spot.


No DH.

C - Geovany Soto
1B - Albert Pujols
2B - Brandon Phillips
SS - Hanley Ramirez
3B - Miguel Cabrera
LF - Alfonso Soriano
CF - Josh Hamilton
RF - Jay Bruce


Rotation
1. Tim Lincecum
2. Johan Santana
3. CC Sabathia
4. Edinson Volquez
5. Carlos Zambrano (Would be Roy Halladay if it was DH)

Bullpen
CL - Fransisco Rodriguez (Everyday)
CL - Mariano Rivera (High Pressure/Playoffs)
SU - Carlos Marmol
SL - Brian Shouse
MR - Jon Rauch
MR - Scot Shields

Bench
PH - Griffey Jr. (At least it looks pretty when its hit)
PR - Jose Reyes
PH/PR - Grady Sizemore
Utility Fielder - Mark DeRosa


Prospect (Draft < 1 year MLB Service) Team

C - Buster Posey (SF)
1B - Yonder Alonso (CIN)
2B - Joaquin Arias (TEX)
SS - Elvis Andrus (TEX)
3B - Pedro Alvarez (PIT)
LF - Matt LaPorta (CLE)
CF - Cameron Maybin (FLA)
RF - Travis Snider (TOR)

P - Clayton Kershaw (LAD)
P - David Price (TB)
P - Neftali Feliz (TEX)

What! Johan third! Mariano not even on there! Marmol as set-up! Sherril, a below average closer, over Mariano! Sizemore on twice! Longoria over A-Rod(/Wright, don't go on about steroids please, his clean years are still better then anything anyone else will put up playing today). Volquez (Who I love) over Peavy, Hamels, Webb, or Lackey? And no Peavy!Haha, here's my list.

C- Joe Mauer
1B- Pujols (I don't like him though, I'd consider Texiera because he's a nicer guy and my team would be so good that the difference wouldn'y matter haha).
2B- Cano (Personal choice, I think the best is Utley. I just love Cano, and I think he'll have the best or second best year of his career with all the changes he's made).
SS- Hanley Ramirez
3B- A-Rod
LF-Ryan Braun
CF- Grady Sizemore
RF- Ichiro Suziki (I know I know, putting him over Carlos Lee and Soriano is probably a bad choice, but what the hell, I love this guy)

Pitching Rotation:
1. Johan Santana
2. Roy Halladay
3. CC Sabathia
4. Jake Peavy
5. Brandon Webb (I know, no Linecum, but I don't think he'll do anything like last year. If you look at history, young players with fantastic first noticable years usually drop off a huge amount the next year and guys figure them out and study them)

Bullpen:
Closer: Mariano Rivera
Set Up: Johnathen Paplebon
MR: Lidge
MR: Jokima Soria
LR: Cole Hamels
LR: Tim Linecum

I'd take Longoria over A-Fraud any day!

And over David Wright and Chipper Jones? I mean Chippers a bit risky as he's usually injured for most of a month and then hits 350+ (well 2 years in a row). Then have David Wright as your back up, or even Longoria. I'd have That as a bench.
