All AL West Team

by Sorbo182 on Oct 13, 2008 3:04 PM PDT Comment 27 comments

i did this at the beginning of the season and im going to post it again because im sure the choices will drastically change

RULES:

a player must play the position you choose him for (no left fielders playing center unless they have played the position before, and no starting pitchers relieving or closing, and you cant have more than one closer)

any player that played in the AL west at anytime during the season is fair game (kotch or tex could be used)

heres mine:

LF-Ibanez

CF-Hamilton

RF-Ichiro

3B-Figgins

SS-Young

2B-Kinsler

1B-Teixeira

C-Napoli

DH-Guerrero

Rotation:

Lackey, Santana, Saunders, Duchscherer, Hernandez

Bullpen:

CL-Rodriguez

RP-Ziegler, Arredondo, Shields

if this goes well maybe ill do other divisions every couple of days

Chris Davis or Beltre at 3rd over figgins as my only change.

Yea I think Bradley has to get in there somehow

Howie for MVP!

Bradley had 22hr and 77 rbi with 112 k in 414 ab….he hit .321
I wouldn’t take that over Vladimir at .300 with 27 hr and 91 ri…
I think maybe his great first half fooled people a triple crown threat he is not..lol

agreed

he will be obnoxiously overpaid next year

If the Red Sox and Dodgers play for the World Series, I will not watch a single minute of a single game.

I think beltre is the most valuable 3rd baseman in AL West

good power when at 100%

Now Beltre,theres a guy u can question his contract signing….Highly over[paid,although he was a good player,I don’t think he is worth what he got !

by raven191 on Oct 13, 2008 4:03 PM PDT up reply actions 0 recs

but, he's the most talented of al west third basemen overall

Of course he’s a rip- off1 He came from the Dodgers!

Duchscherer

he just had some surgery, not sure he will be on this list for 2009

by Rev Halofan on Oct 13, 2008 3:47 PM PDT reply actions 0 recs

Yeah, Beltre at 3rd

He may be overpaid, but he’s the best 3B defensively and not much worse than Davis offensively.

Otherwise that’s a decent list.

I feel the need, the need...for speed!

Ibanez in LF?

his errors were pretty bad, as bad as Manny’s. Now in terms of offensive production then ok I agree with you.

Driven into right-center field, Erstad says he has it...the Angels, world champions!

He saw time there early 2007 with the Reds but he did not play LF this year.

OBP and SLG friend...

Kinsler – OPS of .892

Lopen – OPS of .764

Not even in the same ballpark…pun intended.

exactly

kinsler plays in texas, lopez plays in seattle.

and lopez plays better d.

but to be completely honest, i’m playing a bit of devils advocate and trying to get a little debate going. i mean, everyone is pretty much agreeing on everything.
