Only a 2.6 WAR with WASHINGTON too. Replace him with José LeClerc.

Also John Wetteland deserves a spot on this team.

Cliff Lee spent HALF A SEASON with Texas in 2010. Put him on Cleveland or Philly and give that spot to like Eovaldi or something IDK.

Hough fits better with Miami, I know he was 46 then but he deserves to be there as the man who threw the first pitch in Florida Marlins history.
Totally correct, on Howard, completely forgot he was on the Senators, he will be replaced and yes I also forgot about Feliz I will add him too. I think Rusty Greer is a good pick to replace Howard.

As for Lee, it seems that you guys keep forgetting that the point of these rosters is to be competitive. yes he pitched only half a season with the team and so did Sabathia in Milwaukee but the roster desperately needs him, if you remove Lee who takes his spot? So again the idea here is not nostalgia, its about building the best roster.

Hough definitely belongs with the Rangers, he is the alltime leader in pitching for them in multiple categories.

As always thanks for the input, especially about the Senators.
