All-Time Franchise Team

By Tangotiger, 10:30 AM

With one major constraint: they had to be lifers.

I would have added one more constraint: they must not have played in 2011 (i.e., should be semi-retired at least). Having Ackley and Pineda on the all-time team is… silly.

I *might* also add that they can play one final season on some other team. These guys simply love the game so much that they don’t know when to retire, so one last kick o the can with someone else, before they hang it up, would seem to be in order.

In any case, it’s a fun and silly exercice to begin with, so, can’t be too strict here.
