Presented with only a wee bit of comment:

C - Scott Bradley - I used to love this guy when I was a kid. Then I realized that not striking out isn't really that great of a skill, especially when it means you never walk either.

1B - Pete O'Brien - Just plain awful when he was here. I suppose I could stick Dave Revering here, but he lacks the Free Agent Bust modifier.

2B - Jack Perconte - I remember when this guy was a can't miss prospect for the Dodgers. Well, he missed. He missed so bad that he landed in Seattle.

3B - Jeff Cirillo - I had to get SOMEBODY who wasn't from the 1980s in here...

SS and team captain - Mario Mendoza - Of course.

LF - Pee Wee Briley - The answer to the trivia question, "who played the most games alongside Ken Griffey Jr. in left field?" Yeah, he was awful.

CF - Mike Kingery - More of a RF than a CF, but I felt I had to include him because he was one of the guys the M's got in return for Danny Tartabull. Okay, so Tartabull didn't turn out to be that good of a player, but it was a really, really hated trade at the time.

Actually, forget that...

CF - Stormin' Gorman Thomas - He actually hit 32 homeruns for the M's one year, but I have to have him because another year he hit .155 for them. And they didn't even release him for it.

RF - Glenn Wilson - Lord, he was awful.

DH - Ken "Digger" Phelps - What the hell did you trade Jay Buhner for!? He hit 35 home runs, had over 100 RBIs and had a rocket for an arm. You don't what the hell you're doing!!!
