I'll just do both, I will post the same thing over and over, and I won't do anything to stop the complaining lol, I agree Pujols is the top 1st baseman, but he is not worthy to start this year for the NL and his stats are equal to Jason Giambi, and I am prob. bringing both Giambi and Thome, I know Pujols should prob. go but I am a huge OBP guy and Giambi's .480 OBP and 1.031 OPS beats out Pujols' .403 OBP and 1.010 OPS. I didn't say I wouldn't bring other peoples hitters, I just said if they don't have a hitter that is worthy(as in better than any other hitter that can go) than the team is gonna get a RP or their top SP if the SP's stats warrant it. I am not gonna take a hitter that doesn't have the stats that warrant them going just cause they are the best player on a team without a player going.
the tentative ASG team looks like this(if the voting ends how it is):
Catcher- Mike Piazza, Joe Mauer
1st base- Jim Thome, Jason Giambi, Justin Morneau
2nd Base- Jose Reyes, Alfonso Soriano, Marcus Giles
3rd base- Eric Chavez, David Wright

OF- Adam Dunn, Manny Ramirez
the pitchers will prob. be-
Kazuhito Tadano
Jake Peavy
