Mark Grace
Derrek Lee
Anthony Rizzo

3rd Base (Madlock only played 3yrs with the Cub)
Ron Santo
Aramis Ramirez
Kris Bryant

Rizzo and Bryant.

Is this neccassary? The correct answers are pretty obvious.

Pitcher is clearly a tie between Mike Harkey & Willie Hernandez.

Two things lead me to believe it might be Ramirez over Bryant.

1. I think Bryant permanently moves to the OF sooner rather than later.
2. I also don't believe he'll be here once his Free Agency eligibility hits.

While watching the Sox game, (my oh my are the Twins a horrible baserunning team this year) I though of a bonus question.

If the White Sox don't select Rodon at #3, do the Cub take him and pass on Schwarber?

I think it's reasonable given the service time of both at present. In time one would think that would change.

That said, if number of games is brought into play, then Ernie Banks played more games at 1B than SS, and wherever you decid to assign him he's going to be #1 regardless.

Imagine what he could've done had he been in shape?

And Ryno will disagree, but we should have kept Palmiero.

Depends on if keeping him would've kept them from trading for Sosa.

Banks moved in 62 I believe.

His numbers were much better there than at 1st weren't they?

think of that, you could have had Palmeiro and Sosa on the same team. All roids, all the time.

Certainly, but he still put more time in over there.
