**question: are we judging on their careers with the said team, or can we use players who played for the said team at one point even if they had betters years in another uniform? also, do we have to put them at the position they played with on the said team if they have gone on to play different positions on other teams? cause that would change some things.

[Jose7]

Doesnt matter really, i'd say the players that had their best year(s) with the team.

... changed a few. We don't have much history either.

[Basketball Jesus]

LF- Ichiro

That's cheating: Ichiro has never played left field. Jay Buhner played like 10 games there, though.

[RaoulDuke79]

Hmmm.

Astros:

1b: Jeff Bagwell
2b: Craig Biggio
SS: Dickie Thon
3b: Ken Caminiti
RF: Lance Berkman
CF: Hunter Pence(have to, the kid is a stud!)
LF: Jose Cruz
C: Brad Ausmus(Ashby maybe, meh to both)

SP: Roy Oswalt
SP: Nolan Ryan
SP: Randy Johnson(maybe that's cheating, he was only here briefly)

CL: Billy Wagner/Brad Lidge

Manager: Larry Dierker

[Basketball Jesus]

Jimmy Wynn and Cesar Cedeno called; they want their dignity back.

How can you not put a guy whose nickname was "The Toy Cannon" on your all-time team in favor of a guy with 200 career AB?

[High 5]

A quick one off the top of my head.

SP: Phil Niekro, Tom Glavine, Greg Maddux
CL: John Smoltz

C: Javy Lopez
1B: Fred McGriff
2B: Marcus Giles
3B: Chipper Jones
SS: Edgar Renteria
LF; Henry Aaron
CF: Dale Murphy
RF: Gary Sheffield

So I included a few players who only played here a few years and I stayed fairly recent. But the Braves best teams were recently and I wasn't alive in the 70's or early 80's. So sue me. That also probably wouldn't be the best batting lineup I could create, but I was assuming I should just name the best players at each position.

Oh, and of course the manager would be Bobby Cox.
