Mets v. Indians...Willie Randolph knows what he's doing\n\nIndians are young and hungry

With the rosters as they are, I would take the White Sox.  While the Yankees have a great roster (I am a Yankee fan), the White Sox roster won in 2005 and has only upgraded in the offseason with the additions of Jim Thome and Javy Vazquez will only make the team stronger.

the yankees are in the AL east. i will pick the mets because the braves as of right now dont even have an OK bullpen and they dont have leo mazzoneo. so i think their bullpen will stop them from winning another nl east title. while the mets, they filled their 2 main holes, their closer and and their 1st baseman. brandon looper just couldn't get lefties out and was not the best in getting righties either. while billy wagner can get everybody out. then they got carlos delgado instead of doug m., and carlos can hit .300BA+, 28HR+, and 100RBI+ every year. so they are really good right now unless something like pedro martinez and carlos delgado get injuried and are out for the whole year happens.

Has to be the Mets. They are the best team and are probably the only NL that installs some fear into any team in the AL.

I love those old Twins, like Tony O (would've been a sure HOF if not for his knees?)...I loved the Kirby/"Hrbe" teams as well...Too bad, you couldn't get Rod Carew there, but I guess you had to choose btwn him and Puckett, given the one HOF'er rule...\n\nSince I'm a lifetime Phillies fan, here goes (since I've been following anyway):\n\nC- Bob Boone\n1B - Dick Allen  (almost snuck in Pete Rose here)\n2B - Chase Utley (apologies to Manny Trillo and Juan Samuel)\nSS - Larry Bowa\n3B - Michael Jack Schmidt (HOF)\nLF - Lonnie Smith (a personal fave who started here, and was actually the leadoff hitter on 3, and almost 4 World Series winners)\nCF - Gary Maddox\nRF - Bake McBride\n\nLINEUP:  Smith - Utley - Schmidt - Allen - McBride - Maddox - Boone - Bowa - Carlton (no DH)\n\nReserves:  Cookie Rojas (IF), Greg Gross/Del Unser (OF) and one more?  Tomas Perez\n\nRotation\nLHP Steve Carlton (HOF)\nRHP Curt Schilling  \nRHP Jim Bunning  \nLHP Randy Wolf (a little weak)\nRHP Rick Wise (not great either, but...he once threw a no-hitter and hit 2 HRs in same game, and we traded him for "Lefty"\n\n\n\nBullPen\nTug McGraw (the late, great)\nMitch Williams (keep things exciting)\nGene Garber (liked the swivel delivery)

Oswalt and Pettite will decide your team's fate. Lance Berkman must stay healthy. Can Biggio stay in top of his game?  Bagwell should say goodbye and thanks for the memories.  Arnsberg, Taveras, and Lane will need to exceed\nlast year production.  St Louis, and Chicago reloaded  in NL Central.  Preston Wilson is a short term answer to your team's needs.

The Detroit Tigers!  What a great year they are having, I only wish Trammell was still here to enjoy it.

The Indians are a very good pick, as they gave the ChiSox a run for their money as the season ended. But I pick the Brewers over the Indians in 7 games this year. Milwaukee has some nice young talent, and some veteran leaders.

While I hope the Toronto Blue Jays go on a great run and win the World Series, I think that a team like the St. Louis Cardinals (With a healthy Albert Pujols) has what it takes.  As well, the team the wins the AL East is a definite contender.

Damn straight the YANKEES!!!!!!\nI have to defend them in my house-we flip between the Rangers-Astros and Yankee games. \n\nY A N K E E S    R U L E!!!!!!!

Wow, before I read the details, I had picked Barry Bonds and Kobe Bryant.  I would also like to add Terrill Owens for his selfishness.  Great Question!

1. Mets \n2. White Sox\n3. Tigers\n4. Astros\n5. Red Sox\nI would have to take the Sox staff over the tigers only because they have the post season experience. The tigers sure do have some good young arms though.

Cubs, Yankees, or Red Soxs have to be in the tope 3 in my opinion

DH - Ted Williams (OBP)\n SS - Honus Wagner\n LF - Babe Ruth\n C-   Josh Gibson\n 1B - Lou Gehrig\n RF - Hank Aaron\n CF - Willie Mays\n 3B - Mike Schmidt\n 2B - Joe Morgan\n\nLHP - Lefty Grove\nRHP - Walter Johnson\nRelief - Mariano Rivera\n\nMgr: John McGraw\n\nAlthough Gibson played only in the Negro Leagues, he was still the best hitting catcher of all time. Mike Piazza is the best HITTING catcher to ever play in the Major Leagues. But I picked Berra because of his consistency and outstanding record in post-season play.\n\nGehrig might be the easiest choice at any position other than shortstop.\n\nWagner was the greatest shortstop ever, and might be the best player ever, other than Babe Ruth.\n\nMike Schmidt is just about as easy a choice as Gehrig.\n\nBoth Ruth and Aaron played some left field in their careers, although they were both primarly known as right fielders. If I had to replace one of them with a full-time LF, I suppose I'd pick Ted Williams, and put Ruth back in Right Field.\n\nMight be tempted to replace Mays with Mantle in CF. Mays had better career numbers, but while they were both in their prime, Mantle was a better hitter, had more power, and was probably faster as well. Center field might be the toughest of the 8 regular positions to pick (Mays, Cobb, Speaker, Mantle).\n\nSecond base is a tough pick between Joe Morgan and Eddie Collins... I wouldn't rate Hornsby with either of them.\n\nManager would be between John McGraw, Casey Stengel and Earl Weaver. I guess I'd go with McGraw.\n\nAnywaym, that's my team as it stands today... tomorrow, it might be a different story.
