Best Hypothetical Team w/ Current Players

Branching off of a discussion in this thread, I decided to make this thread. The idea is just to post what in your opinion is the best possible team using all active players.

Here's mine:

C Mauer
1B Pujols
2B Utley
SS H. Ramirez
3B Wright
LF Braun
CF Beltran
RF Probably Markakis
Bench J. Reyes
Bench Sizemore
Bench Ichiro
Bench R. Martin
Bench Pedroia
Bench Teixeira

SP Santana
SP Peavy
SP Webb
SP Sabathia
SP Haren
RP Halladay (Long reliever :p)
RP F. Rodriguez
RP Rivera
RP Papelbon
RP Lidge
RP Nathan

Beltran the best CF? ...

C Mauer
1B Pujols
2B Pedroia
SS Hanley Ramirez
3B A-Rod
LF Braun (if defense not a big factor: Manny)
CF Sizemore (duh)
RF Markakis

Rotation:

Halladay
Santana
Sabathia
Webb
Lincecum

I'm too busy right now to look at some stats but here are mine off the top of my head


C Martin
1B Pujols
2B Utley
SS J. Reyes/H. Ramirez (both very very similar players IMO)
3B Wright
LF Braun
CF Sizemore
RF Ichiro
Bench H. Ramirez/J. Reyes (depending on who I decide is better)
Bench Beltran
Bench Crawford
Bench McCann
Bench Pedroia
Bench Teixeira

SP Halladay
SP Santana
SP Peavy
SP Webb
SP Oswalt
RP Lidge
RP Rivera
RP F. Rodriguez
RP Nathan
RP Valverde
RP Fuentes

similar to metsguy's i know

LF : Carl Crawford (TBR)
CF : Grady Sizemore (CLE)
RF : Justin Upton (ARI)
3B : David Wright (NYM)
SS : Hanley Ramirez (FLA)
2B : Chase Utley (PHI)
1B : Albert Pujols (STL)
C : Brian McCann (ATL)

BENCH
1) Miguel Cabrera(1B DET)
2) Matt Wieters(C BAL) - could easily become the starter once I see what he can do
3) Alex Rodriguez(3B NYY)
4) Jose Reyes(SS NYM)
5) Nick Markakis(OF BAL)

Rotation
1) Johan Santana(SP NYM) - L
2) Brandon Webb(SP ARI) - R
3) Zack Greinke(SP KCR) - L
4) Felix Hernandez(SP SEA) - R
5) Clayton Kershaw(SP LAD) - L

Bullpen
CL - Joakim Soria(KCR)
ST - Mariano Rivera(NYY)
SR - Matt Capps(PIT)
SR - Jonathon Broxton(LAD)

This is just my 'dream' team if I had to draft a team to compete for the future, not necessarily who I think the best at each position is. This includes age/injury/defense/offense/utility-ness.

@eggson - you got Ichiro twice :p

Ill just say my Roto team in yahoo, because I am owning. :D

I think it's arguable.

Beltran and Sizemore easily top CF's in Majors but I think Sizemore has the edge
