Two Hall of Famers again, but not much starting pitching.

Lineup:
1 Cesar Cedeno, CF
2 Ron Santo, 3B
3 Paul O'Neill, RF
4 Monte Irvin, LF
5 Andy Pafko, 1B
6 Bob Brenly, C
7 Jack Lohrke, 2B
8 Jack Hannifin, SS

Bench: Shannon Stewart, OF; Bob Bescher, OF; Danny Cater, 1B-3B; Roy Weatherly, OF; David Hulse, OF.

Rotation:
1 Denny Lemaster
2 Al Hollingsworth
3 Ed Lynch
4 Jim Britt

Bullpen:  Key Dayley, Kevin Hickey, Henry Rodriguez, Dana Kiecker.

Thin pitching, good lineup overall but I had to get two 19th century nobodies for the middle infield.  In actuality, though I usually try to avoid doing that with teams, Santo and Irvin would play middle infield and Stewart and Bescher would go into the outfield.  Pafko could take third with someone at 1B.


 
On this team, we get two Hall of Famers, and another guy who could be.  Best birthday team in days.

Lineup
1 Bob Seeds, RF
2 Honus Wagner, SS
3 Eddie Murray, 1B
4 Mike Lowell, 3B
5 Nick Esasky, LF
6 Bubba Phillips, CF
7 Earl Grace, C
8 Joe Dolan, 2B

Bench: DeWayne Wise, OF; Pinky Pittenger, IF; Chris Parmalee, OF-1B; Del Wilber, C.

Rotation
1 Wilbur Cooper
2 Bronson Arroyo
3 Bugs Raymond
4 Nick Blackburn

Bullpen: Rene Arocha, Lynn Nelson, Eury de la Rosa.

Not much depth, and we've got two corner men (Esasky and Phillips) playing out of position in the OF, though both played some there.  Still, enough talent to beat most teams we've seen so far.
