Hello friends! We're in a bit of an unprecedented time, no? I figured part of my job during this time with so many of you sitting at home with little to do was to help provide a way to kill some time while also entertaining and giving you something to think about. To that end, I'm creating an all-time team for all 30 MLB franchises and encouraging everyone to create their own along with me. You can share it with me via Twitter (@MattSnyderCBS) or just do it on your own. Do it with friends in a Zoom/Google Meet/Skype hangout. That would be fun.
Anyway, we worked through the 30 teams with one every single day of April. Here's every roster:
AL East
- Boston Red Sox: Mookie, Ted, Double X and Big Papi through the middle
- New York Yankees: Obviously, the Bronx Bombers are stacked
- Toronto Blue Jays: Some will be surprised how loaded this team is
- Tampa Bay Rays: From Fred McGriff to today's rotation
- Baltimore Orioles: How does a Ripken and Robinson left side sound?
AL Central
- Detroit Tigers: This is one of the best teams
- Kansas City Royals: Quite the rotation and, of course, George Brett
- Chicago White Sox: Minoso setting the table for Big Hurt and Konerko
- Cleveland Indians: How does a Lofton-Doby combo sound at the top?
- Minnesota Twins: Loaded lineup and Big Three in rotation
AL West
- Houston Astros: Toy Cannon to Nolan to Killer Bs
- Los Angeles Angels: Anderson, Trout, Vlad man the outfield
- Texas Rangers: Tons of power along with two HOF in rotation
- Oakland Athletics: Bash Brothers, Reggie, Rickey and more
- Seattle Mariners: Ichiro, Junior, Edgar, Big Unit and more
NL East
- Atlanta Braves: What to do with Chipper and Eddie?
- New York Mets: Seaver, Gooden, deGrom front rotation
- Philadelphia Phillies: You're gonna love the infield, Phils fans
- Miami Marlins: Go check out that outfield
- Washington Nationals: Lots of Expos are here, too!
NL Central
- Chicago Cubs: Balancing all-time greats with 2016
- St. Louis Cardinals: Pujols, Yadi, Stan the Man and more
- Pittsburgh Pirates: Clemente, Bonds, Wagner, Stargell and more
- Cincinnati Reds: Votto joins Rose, Morgan and Bench
- Milwaukee Brewers: Base-stealing prowess with power at the top
