Just a fun poll until gametime. I notice a whole lotta love still for Aaron since he was traded, and I think it would be interesting to see how much love he gets vs. Frank.

Man, aaron rowand / frank thomas are almost auto winners here. Maybe a better poll would be without them, or something.

 

I cant not pick aaron.

What?!? No Fred Manrique?

Where's Timo Perez?

Other active players I missed because it cut me off were Marte, Vizcaino, Graffy, Valentin, Kip and Fogg.

 

They all blow anyways.

I am absolutely livid that there's no Aaron Miles choice.

Not including Valentin is a travesty.

Durham

No Jeremy Reed?

& Hernandez.

 

Gotta love those 90s teams.

 

Thigpen's still active, right?

Miguel Olivo?

 

 

Ok, I'm done :P

 

 

Frank got my vote.

I've been wanting to do this poll ever since I finished a fantasy draft last month. the league has 20 teams, and everyone selects their favorite or a team they like, etc.

 

Anyways, you can only draft current and former players of that team. I got the Sox (obviously), and since Buehrle, Garland, Iguchi, Jenks, Cotts, Crede, BMac and B. Anderson have not played for any other teams, nobody could draft them but me.

 

Then I got lucky there wasn't a Brewers, Tigers or A's team....so that made Frank, Carlos and Maggs untouchable for me as well.

 

Here's the lineup I ended up with:

 

C - AJ

1B - Thomer

2B - Iguchi

3B - Crede

SS - Urine

OF - Pods

OF - Maggs

OF - Lee

Util - Thomas

Bench - Mackoviak, Rowand

SP's - Buehrle, Garland, D. Wells, El Duque, Fogg

RP's - Jenks, Foulke, Cotts, Shoenweiss, Howry, Vizcaino

 

I then turned around and traded Maggs to the Pirates for Oliver Perez (ughhhhhh!), and just accepted a trade of Melvin Mora for Garland.

 

What do you guys think? I swept my matchup last week, mainly due to Thomer.

Ivan Calderon and Melido Perez.

If that was intentional it's not that funny, if unintentional, hilarious.

It was intentional, but just an ongoing joke since his arrival a few years back. Just a jab at his free-swinging ways, not his defensive presence.

rowand

The Row.

Maggs then became Rowand.

its so hard for me to choose...everett, rowand, and miguel olivo are all the same.. and i'm dead serious about olivo :gosox1:

Robin Ventura. With Black Jack McDowell as a close second.

I voted for Thomas, but I really miss the old fifth starter carousel. Where is Danny Wright? And the rest... I know Rauch is still in baseball, Nationals I believe.
