NCsoxfan Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 I had an interesting thought... Which team would be the best right NOW if they had only players that they drafted. If a player has been drafted by more than one team, lets assume he would play for the team that first drafted him. Can anyone compile a list of the best teams according to this method??

DukeNukeEm Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 It's safe to say the Yankees would be the worst team ever it is werent for Free Agency. Hmmm.. Thats a good question. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NCsoxfan Posted July 13, 2005 Author Share Posted July 13, 2005 The White Sox pitching staff would be Buehrle, Kip Wells, Jeff Weaver, McCarthy, Josh Fogg..... Lineup of Aaron Miles, Big Hurt, C Lee, Maggs, Crede etc... Outside of us, Im thinking Oakland would be sitting pretty as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's a pretty s***ty starting rotation. Aaron Miles...um no. Try Ray Durham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwerty Posted July 13, 2005 Share Posted July 13, 2005 Expos have traded away the most talent by far. You can make three teams up with their players alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the top of my head: C: Michael Barrett 1B: Brad Fullmer 2B: Jose Vidro SS: Orlando Cabrera 3B: Mark Grudzielanek LF: Cliff Floyd, Rondell White CF: Milton Bradley RF: Vlad Guerrero, Larry Walker SP: Javier Vazquez SP: Miguel Batista CL: Ugueth Urbina Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if your talking only draftee's, then I shall STFU. Well, Walker was on my list. Seeing how he was originally signed by the Expos. And yes this is going strickly by Draftees. If you go by just players who have been on thier team but then traded away the list gets much larger. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot about the first question assuming the player signed with the 1st team he was drafted by... I rather looked at the players who signed with the organzation Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
