[Sparky12]

All the choices seem pretty easy other than your opening day pitcher thought to pick a this point. Could be interesting if we do manage to make it into a wildcard game who gets the ball?

[backontop]

WANG, Hutchison and Ortiz, Of course DICKEY if his if nuckle ball has been 'nuckling'. Izzy at short, Boni at second, but I'd prefer Lawrie, Pinch runner, Davis for sure! Lind at first, JPA catching, I haven't seen enough of Thole, Set up man, nobodys better than Cecil, Closer Janssen by a long shot!

[Abomination]

Opening pitcher:

 

Dickey (just so the knuckle ball can mess with the hitters for longer)

 

In the starting rotation:

 

Wang

Hutchison

Romero

 

Shortstop:

 

Kawa

 

Second base:

 

Boni

 

Pinch runner:

 

Davis

 

Playing 1st base (other is DH'ing):

 

Lind

 

Catching (assume no KB):

 

JPA

 

Setup man:

 

Delabar (Like the matchup ability better for Cecil, since the setup man generally has a defined time they get in the game)

 

Closing:

 

Janssen

Lol obviously Johanssen.

[G-Snarls]

Lol obviously Johanssen.

 

Yeah true

[Arkadium]

Lol obviously Johanssen.

 

Not that obvious to me - I'd take pre-kids Garner over Johanssen.
