There is no reason that lineup should finish anything less than 162-0 after the regular season and sweep through the playoff ... Oh wait, Rocker's on that team and George is the owner. Ok, maybe 160-2. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/wink.gif[/img]

the problem is that having steve phillips as the GM would lead to all the stars begin traded for minor league nobodys

look at the list of minor leaguers with steroid suspensions recently.........that would be your roster inside of 3 years with that moron

btw......no "scandal" team can be complete without "shoeless joe"

OMG!!! I don't know how I missed that name! "Shoeless" Joe. Nice catch.

i may also take wally backman at 2nd over billy martin

id also probably drop a guy like kekich in favor of ron darling or bret saberhagen

id like to add a bench spot for vince coleman also

**BlueWahooChambordDevil** · May 13th, 2008, 02:44 PM

upon further review id also like to add david cone to the staff.....we just let him warm up in the bullpen

**ms pemberley** · May 13th, 2008, 02:52 PM

saberhagen and coleman definitely get some votes from me. Also, what about a juiced up Jason Giambi (back in the day)? A little back-up power on the bench.

**BlueWahooChambordDevil** · May 13th, 2008, 03:00 PM

the problem is that it seems every friggin 1B had some issues

id rather have mc gwire and raffy with parker as a guy that can also play first

no need for giambi
