Here it is again. It was a big hit on the espn board when I did it, and I think I have a feel for enough posters on here now to attempt to make relevant choices. If I leave someone out, or you don't like my choice...blow.

Starting lineup:

Rickie Weeks - gobrewers2213: lots of potential, not a lot of results (i.e. karma)

JJ Hardy - me: QB of the team, best looking guy on the roster

Ryan Braun - jpat: most production, leader of the team

Prince Fielder - Fan174: lots of production too, but don't piss him off

Corey Hart - BraunMVP08: contributes a lot, but quietly

Mike Cameron - Tyler67853: has come on strong lately

Bill Hall - BrainDedNed: spotty performance, but still in the lineup

Jason Kendall - UWbrewball: calls a great game (thread)

Rotation:

CC Sabathia - slaket13: what can you say about what he's done since he came here? Amazing.

Ben Sheets - adambr2: still a co-ace

Jeff Suppan - rwilldred27: just when you think he's a waste of money, he really starts to contribute.

Manny Parra - vismund: young guy who could turn out to be great

Dave Bush - medicgary33: he's a thinker

Bullpen:

David Riske - nation11: gotta have him for the stretch run

Guillermo Mota - chukk314: if used sparingly, can do well

Carlos Villanueva - jammin481: very important part of the pen, can go long innings (hence why girls with big boobs date him)

Brian Shouse - thirdstoolin: old fella of the club

Seth McClung - itsmikerivera: using your old name (especially since Kevin Mench is no longer on the team)

Eric Gagne - No Mas Gagne: hee hee

Salomon Torres - trwi7: our shutdown closer

Bench:

Mike Rivera - bobadgers: when he does play, contributes mightily

Craig Counsell - C34halloffame: obvious

Ray Durham - Fire_Yost_Please: could be a starter

Gabe Kapler - tonyei31: another guy who could start on a less deep team, becaue he can still contribute

Laynce Nix - Acragas: why not?

DL:

Yovani Gallardo - biestie: could be our future ace

Russell Branyan - berkshirebull: started out hot, now done

Chris Capuano - brewcrew8: will we ever see him again?

Others who just missed (40-man):

Tony Gwynn Jr. - rkilawee
Joe Dillon - trouty42
Tim Dillard - MatrixCL
Mitch Stetter - wiisamus2
Hernan Iribarren - nfroiland2008

adminnote:Admin Note: RyGuy's classic thread...one of my personal favorites.

Strongly disagree with this part.

Is it requisite that I speak Spanish? Because if it is, we have some problems.

C3 should obviously be starting over Bill hall. Especially because he's got over 1000 more appearances (posts) then Hall.

Yeah, I debated about who would be the starter. I just think of Billy as a starter and C3 as a bench player still. But with posts factored in, probably could have switched it.

Nice!
"It was about the third or fourth inning. I had a pulled groin and couldn't fuck at the time. She was a very nice girl and asked me what to do with the cum after I came in her mouth. I said don't ask me, I'm no cock-sucker."

She said that after she calmed down. You weren't there to hear her curse me out for the forty-five minutes prior.

Thanks for putting me in the Bullpen. I wouldn't want to be any place else.

Because that would probably give him too much joy in the list. And we dont want to make him that happy, do we?
