    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 )
    RP F. Rodriguez
    RP Rivera
    RP Papelbon
    RP Lidge
    RP Nathan
    ]

    Re: Best Hypothetical Team w/ Current Players

    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.

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