DH - Jackson

I'd take out A-Rod and put in Graig Nettles.

I debated between Ford and Guidry, can't go wrong with either one.

And five years from now we may see Cano at second. Maybe.

I'm not an A-Rod fan, but no way I sanely put Nettles ahead of him.

Is it true that Ford admitted to cheating?

There are tons of players in every sport throughout history that "cheated". I would almost applaud him for actually admitting it.

Yeah. But if he ever gambled...

That's a different story. Gambling is WAY worse than cheating

Depending on how far back you want to go, it's a tough call between Nap Lajoie and Utley at 2nd base.

Rollins over Bowa all day long for me.

Mike Lieberthal or even Darren Daulton over Boone

And if you want to stay true to positions, then Klein would start in RF and I'd put Luzinski in LF

Here's a question for you guys. Who would be the Pitcher on the all time roster for the Minnesota Twins? Hint, it's kind of a trick question.

Walter Johnson is who you're referring to, when the franchise was the Washington Senators.

Jack Morris would likely be No. 2.

At a time, an argument could have been made for Viola and Santana, but those were fairly brief stints. Blyleven is always associated with the Twins, but he really only had 2 brief stints there. That being said...if I had to vote...I'd go with Jim Kaat

One season makes him the best in franchise history? I'd have to argue that

Your right. I thought he pitched there longer.

I forgot about Viola. And know nothing about Kaat.

Good job MO.

Kaat holds the Twins record for wins at 190. he also holds the AL record for gold gloves as a pitcher and is 2nd all time behind Maddux
