It was hard to leave Boog Powell off the team, but who do you take off? Murray or Sisler? I say neither. McNally was better than Boddicker or Mussina. You could make a better case for Cuellar.hershhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07095348599514214434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2339646220153814400.post-78506694112746660632011-03-03T16:20:27.934-05:002011-03-03T16:20:27.934-05:00I thought that Brian Roberts deserved the nod... b...I thought that Brian Roberts deserved the nod... body of work as an Oriole. Grich was a phenomenal defensive player but Roberts ranks pretty high up in Orioles history. He didn't have the "spike" that other players had; he's been pretty consistent throughout his career. Brady Anderson doesn't make the cut because his spike was so volatile. <br /><br />I think that I had Murray at first and Powell at DH but Sisler deserves to make the team... winning an MVP when he played meant something. I had Ken Singleton over Ken Williams but I think that Williams is the better pick. He played some of his career pre-1920 but he put up some solid numbers. Can't believe there's not a better pick in the OF.@OCP22https://www.blogger.com/profile/06983828112048757251noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2339646220153814400.post-50669798134637371802011-03-03T12:53:45.474-05:002011-03-03T12:53:45.474-05:00All good choices.

Rick Dempsey at catcher and either Mike Boddicker or Mike Mussina instead of McNally. <br /><br />Dempsey doesn't have the numbers to support being there, but man, he kicked my Phillies butts in the 83 series.Leftyhttp://philliesnation.comnoreply@blogger.com
