Well, since I was so off on my football picks, it made me start thinking about baseball. Got some thoughts I wanted to share with the readers of the blog spot about the all NL East team and some other baseball views...enjoy!
Here is my All NL East team.
1B - Ryan Howard (Philadelphia)
2B - Chase Utley (Philadelphia)
SS - Jimmy Rollins (Philadelphia)
3B - David Wright (New York)
LF - Pat Burrell (Philadelphia)
CF - Carlos Beltran (New York)
RF - Jeff Francouer (Atlanta)
C - Brian McCann (Atlanta)
SP - Cole Hammels (Philadelphia)
SP - John Smoltz (Atlanta)
SP - John Maine (New York)
SP - Brett Myers (Philadelphia)
SP - Tim Hudson (Atlanta)
CP - Billy Wagner (New York)
As I looked over the teams in the NL east to make this team, I found that I really am not that impressed with the divison. Six Phillies made the team and there could have been some more.
Here are some thoughts...
Close battles at SS, with Jose Reyes, Jimmy Rollins and Hanley Ramirez. Rollins gets the call as the league MVP, I ranked them Rollins, Ramirez, Reyes.
Close battle at 3B - Dave Wright edges out Ryan Zimmerman and Chipper Jones
Close battle at Closer - I think Lidge can have a real good year but I give the edge to Wagner till I see what he does.
I think top to bottom right now, the Phillies have the bets team in the divison. With 3 legit MVP canidates and a Cy Young award canidate. They have the best the core in the divison.
Pitchers and Catchers are almost here...
