I'd bench that Hobbs bum and put in The Whammer.

pseudodragon posted:Then Billy Chapel from For the Love of the Game fills a starting rotation spot. The prime version gets you an ace or the end of career movie version could still hold a middle/back of the rotation innings eater. He also fills the Coster spot since a movie/baseball crossover without Costner is wrong. Also, even at the end of his career, Billy Chapel has perfect game stuff. What about Sylvester Coddmeyer III? I mean, we only see him as a kid, but clearly he's being groomed for success by some high-powered mentors.

OK, so the lineup looks like this: C Jake Taylor, Major League 1B Mr. Go, Mr. Go 2B Kelly Leak, Bad News Bears SS Henry Skrimshander, The Art of Fielding 3B Jimmy Dugan, A League of Their Own LF Worf, Son of Mogh, DS9: "Take Me Out To the Holosuite" CF Benny "The Jet" Rodriguez, The Sandlot RF Roy Hobbs, The Natural OF Stan Ross, Mr. 3000 IF Ricky Davis, Mr. Baseball (played by Frank Thomas!) SP Steve Nebraska, The Scout SP Nuke LaLoosh, Bull Durham SP Bily Chapel, For Love of the Game SP Sidd Finch, Sports Illustrated April Fools Joke RP Sam Malone, Cheers: "Now Pitching, Sam Malone" RP Kazuo Uzuki, 2008 Topps Baseball April Fools Joke RP Monty Brewster, Brewster's Millions SU Kenny Powers, Eastbound & Down CL Henry Rowengardner, Rookie of the Year Manager: Billy Heywood, Little Big League I'm back-and-forth at slotting in "movie version of Ty Cobb" at 2B, just because I don't think Kelly Leak can hit at the "imaginary all-stars" level.

Sam Malone was a relief pitcher.

Mr. Go wasn't a position player. He was either the DH or he pinch hit, and it's probably a crime to include a man in place of a woman when the movie is about dames playing baseball. Vote Marla Hooch or Dottie. We should also have a tenth player on the field in the form of one of the angels from Angels in the Outfield.

Everblight posted:This all works except now you're starting Jackie Earl Haley in Bad News Bears at second, unless we're moving Benny Rodriguez in from CF. If there really isn't anyone else Tony Danza played 2nd in Who's the Boss. I don't remember them talking about whether he was any good, but at least he made the show before injuries turned him into a maid.

I don't know what position he played or why I remember this character at all, but Josh Exley of the X Files hit 61 homers for the Roswell Grays in 1947. Could be used for some pop off the bench I guess. He was an alien and all but no superpowers so he should be legal.

Very disappointed that Ed has been dropped. He turned an unassisted triple play at third base for gently caress's sake.

He had a very short amateur career, but is Edward Bloom good enough to make the team?

If you want to go with a 5 man rotation, you could fill it out with Henry Wiggen from Bang the Drum Slowly (et all) who was supposed to be a star pitcher.

I agree about League of their Own. Dottie if we need a C, Marla Hooch if we need a 2B.

I firmly believe defenses don't really turn triple plays, idiot baserunning teams TOOTBLAN themselves into them. Ed still has a place on the Goons, just as a bench player.

I mean, I've long thought a Golden Retriever would be the best SS imaginable, nothing would get by him. It's getting him to throw to first that would be tricky. At the plate he presents his own challenges vis-a-vis hitting, but I've heard dogs love taking walks.

All groundouts to him will just have to be unassisted. That is a small strike zone on him, he'd probably take alot of walks.

1B or DH could be that tall fat kid from Heavyweights that hit the dinger that bounced off the tree and hit that other fat kid in the head when he was coming back from the infirmary.
