Jeff Kent. He's solid with the glove and has one of the best bats. His age will soon be a factor as he's already lost a step or two. But he's a hall of famer who can still drive the ball and make all the plays he's supposed to. \n\nIn a few years Chase Utley will likely be the best. He had a great season last year and it's likely that he'll continue to do so. \n\nAlfonso Soriano is by far not the best. His defense is putrid and his offense isn't nearly as good as others think. He does't get on base enough and he's a product of hitting in good hitters parks. He can hit the ball out of the park once in a while, but he's not a guy I want playig for my team.

I will go into the minority here and say Guillen. He will get on base and score runs for you, plus his power and RBI numbers will be better than Francouer's.

roger clemens. the rocket. hes the best active pitcher all-time, and current, even though he hasnt pitched a major league game yet this year. by the end of the year he'll prove hes still the best. the best reliever is jonathon papelbon

i'd go with pedro, due to the run support that the mets have, he's a pretty solid option from start to finish...there's a slight risk for injury unfortunately, but i think it's worth it.  if you have something against martinez or the mets, then i suggest going with chris carpenter.

Is this a keeper league question? Assuming all things equal I like Wells he has edge in HR, RBIs and SBs the only caveat is assuming you treat all OF positions equally there are many more OF candidates than 3B candidates so find a great OF is easier than 3B.

1. Yankees - Wang (Johnson had a 5.00 ERA this year)\n2. A's - Rich Harden (Zito is a free agent)\n3. Red Sox - Schilling\n4. Twins - Santana\n5. Angels - John Lackey (far better than Colon)\n6. Blue Jays - Halladay\n7. Marlins - Sanchez\n8. Dodgers - Maddux\n9. Mets - Glavine\n10. Cards - Carpenter\n11. Tigers - Verlander

I feel that by far the best utility guy in the MLB is Chone Figgins of the Angels. He combines great speed with a consistent glove and a solid bat. Another good utility is Ryan Freelof the Reds. He has excellent speed, but doesn't have as good of a bat as Figgins. Also, there are Bill Hall of the Brewers and Brandon Inge of the Tigers, if you want to count him. Brandon Inge has been playing 3rd base very consistently of recent, but in addition he has played outfield, shortstop, and catcher in his professional baseball career.

1) Albert Pujols - Best player in the universe right now\n2) Joe Mauer - Hitting like Ichiro\n3) Francisco Liriano - The next "Johan Santana"\n4) Scott Rolen - Veteran who can still hit\n5) Eric Gagne - Could have been higher if wasn't for injuries\n6) Jonny Gomes - Already showing power and patience at young age and could get better\n7) Justin Morneau - Starting to develop power and could evolve as the best if he can be patience at bat \n8) Chris Shelton - Streaky power hitter that needs to be consistent to succeed\n9) Adam LaRoche - Shows power but needs to solve left-handers

Prince Fielder.\nHe's been a solid hitter so far. He has great power and can hit at least 25-30 in his rookie season.\n\nAL obviously Papelbon.

Fernando Rodney is a suggestion. Last year he had a 2.86 ERA in 39 games. Although Detroit may keep him in the bullpen.

The first two to pop into my mind are Ozzie Smith, and Willie Mays, but that leaves out COUNTLESS other great players.  I'll edit this after I think a bit...\n\nAll right, with 16 consecutive gold gloves I'll throw Brooks Robinson in as number 3.\n\nHere's a list by position for the AL, year by year, (the list at the bottom includes both leagues)

I think that you have a pretty solid team. You have a LOT of depth in starting pitching, and some pretty decent bats. One suggestion that I would make is to upgrade at 2B. Use one of your starters, or package a starter with Brian Roberts if need be, and try to get one of the top 2B, maybe Alfonso Soriano. Hope that helps.

I would have to either go with Andruw Jones or Chip, Chip, Chipper... Both have consistantly performed through out the duration of their career.  So my answer is most definitly John Smoltz.  Hes been a been around forever, and still is a killer pitcher.  He has changed his style to fit the improvement of hitters, and has been one hell of a gunslinger.  No question.

Currently-----> Alex Rodriguez all the way!!! He has over 400 homers, and he is a really stong player. And, he plays good defense on 3B, and even though he swings at a lot of his pitches, that is what gave him all those homers!!!\n\nPast-----> Babe Ruth!!!

1. hafner\n2. wells\n3. delgado \n4. griffey\n\nright now, broussard is better than all of them!

I think Jose Reyes has the best chance.  He's young and his legs are fresh plus he'll have many chances to do it with his young age.  My darkhorse pick would have to be Chone Figgins.
