Create the greatest lineup ever

Spin off of the other thread



1 Craig Biggio - 2B (my favorite player had to be on it, plus 3000 hits, more hbp then anyone, and most lead off homers by any NLer eveer)
2 Ted Williams - LF
3 Mickey Mantle - CF
4 Babe Ruth - RF
5 Albert Pujos - 1B (I hate putting him here)
6 Alex Rodriguez - SS (the young non roided up version)
7 Chipper Jones - 3B
8 Mike Piazza - C (best hitting catcher ever)
9 Mike Hampton - P (best I could think of without putting Ruth here)

you take Piazza over Pudge?

you take Piazza over Pudge?

How is Barry Bonds not on there if u are just picking the best?

Only as a batter

Pudge was a 300 hitter that'l get you 10-25 bombs and 80 ribbies. Piazza was a 300 hitter that'll get you 30+ bombs and 100+ ribbies.

I picked Ted Williams over Barry. Not that big of a deal if you ask me.

Ted was probably the better hitter and he wasn't on the juice.

I guess so but to see the all-time HR king not on a all time great sqaud surprised me alittle.

I'm doing an AMERICAN LEAGUE LINEUP lol that way I have the excuse of using someone as a DH =P

Also going to pick a 5 man starting rotation since I am bored =)

1. Ichiro Suzuki-RF (.331 avg, 90 HR)
2. Ty Cobb- CF (.366 avg, 4,189 hits, 117 HR)
3. Ted Williams- LF (.344 avg, 521 HR)
4. Hank Aaron- DH (.305 avg, 755 HR)
5. Lou Gehrig- 1B (.340 avg, 493 HR)
6. Cal Ripken Jr. - SS (.276 avg, 431 HR)
7. Jackie Robinson- 2B (.311 avg, 137 HR)
8. Wade Boggs- 3B (.328 avg, 138 HR)
9. Yogi Berra- C (.285 avg, 358HR)

P- Cy Young- 511 wins 2.63 ERA
P- Sandy Koufax- 165 wins 2.76 ERA and the greatest curveball ever.
P- Bob Feller- 266 wins 3.25 ERA
P- Nolan Ryan- 324 wins 3.19 ERA 5,714K's
