Are we talking in their prime? If so, the numbers are pretty lousy. I get that it is for the less analytical fanbase though. Andrew Jones and Pedro are steals. Plenty of other steals in there as well. 

It's just going around twitter right now, so I just took it at face value. I did not create it by any means lol

I'm going with the all free team.

C- Yadi Molina

1B- Goldschmidt

2B- Ryne Sandberg (Ugh.  Ewww.  Barf.  Maybe I'll just take Brandon Phillips for defense...)

SS- Nomar Garciaparra (Does Robin Yount count?  Not enough of his career ahead of him I suppose.)

3B -- Manny Machado.  (Cmon baby!)

LF- Tim Raines

CF- Kenny Lofton (The Robin Yount question comes up again -- but I think it is easy to forget how great Lofton was with the Indians)

RF- Tony Gwynn

DH -- Todd Helton ( is this cheating?  Victor Martinez if I can't count Helton's scarce DH appearances.)

 

P- Curt Schilling (gosh, so hard not to go with a 42 year old Nolan Ryan -- I don't know how the rules work so I'm going with the guy that had more career left.  Though Ryan was great in 89.  A lot of great choices here , Kevin Brown, Johan, Greinke, Cliff Lee, Roy Halladay, Scherzer, Verlander and even Sale and Kluber... guys that can certainly stand up to the guys on the list in everything but longevity. 

RP -- Dennis Eckersly

I'd go

Raines-Gwynn-Goldy-Helton- Manny-Nomar-Sandberg-Yadi-Lofton

I don't think that is half bad for free!

 

PS-- the Frank Thomas deal is completely ridiculous.

SP Sale $3 -- That's ridiculous

RP David Robertson $1 The others don't justify spending more

DH Frank Thomas $5 The best hitter there

RF Sammy Sosa $5 IDGAF this guy was a homer machine 

1b Fred McGriff $1

2b Javy Baez $5

3b Kris Bryant $4

SS Juan Uribe $2

LF Alfonso Soriano $5

CF Alex Rios $1

C Wellington Castillo $1

 

That was too easy. Just grab the stars Sosa, Thomas, Soriano, Baez, Sale
