You basing this off of single season performance? Career performance? Just who you felt deserved it?

I'll post my Portland and Madison one shortly...

I haven’t been around long so I did single season but for the vets that have been here forever it’d probably be easier to do career. Doesn’t matter to me!

[BaseClogger]

I like the single season idea better. Thinking I should steal this to do a team news since I’ve got exactly ten years in the league it can be an all-decade team.

I had to at least get TN Credit for this....

Portland's All-Time Team

My All-Time Team-(Best Single Season per Position Cairo 2055 and Charlotte 2056-2060 limited to one appearance per player)

C: Lawrence Stewart 2059 Charlotte
Stewart’s 4 WAR Rookie of the Year campaign was easily the best single season for any of my catchers since joining the league.

1B: Manny “Outlaw” Toledo 2057 Charlotte
There were a couple of possibilities here but Toledo set the franchise record for home runs in ‘57 with 42, so I’m going with this one.

2B Dallas “Firecracker” Dixon 2058 Charlotte
Dixon set the franchise record for WAR in a single single season with 6.1, while slashing .373/.428/.492 in his first full year in Charlotte.

3B Jacquot “Bandit” Natta 2060 Charlotte
Natta put up 5.4 WAR just as a 3B in his second full season, good for the 6th highest single season total in franchise history, slashing .325/.385/.567, with 31 HR and 90 RBI.

SS Robert “Tosser” Menzies 2056 Charlotte
The team was pretty bad but Menzies was fantastic. He put up 5.7 WAR, slashing .326/.407/.467 with 26 SB and good defense.

LF Jorge Trujillo 2060 Charlotte
Trujillo got the opportunity to play every day and made the most of it. He slashed .291/.307/.531 with 38 doubles, 36 home runs, and a franchise record tying 129 RBI while posting 2.7 WAR. His WAR would have been higher without a September slump, but he picked things up again in the postseason, where he hit .402 with 10 extra base hits and 16 RBI in 19 games.

CF Blair “Breezy” Peyton 2055 Cairo
Peyton slashed .351/.398/.481 with 234 hits, including 38 doubles and 15 triples, posting 8.7 WAR to lead the Pharaohs to the first championship in franchise history.

RF Ramiro Hernandez 2055 Cairo
Hernandez slashed .319/.362/.596, with 56 doubles, 26 home runs, 107 RBI, and 4.3 WAR in 141 games.

DH Tadataka Yoshikawa 2060 Charlotte
Yoshikawa played mostly DH and a little 1B, slashing .288/.367/.516 with 36 doubles, 25 home runs, 85 RBI, 17 stolen bases, and 3.1 WAR.

SP

Buwono Mainaky 2060 Charlotte
Mainaky has had two very good seasons in a row, with 2060 being his best yet. He finished 16-7 with a 3.55 ERA, 3.61 FIP, and 83 FIP-.

Andres Gonzales 2057 Charlotte
Gonzales fell on hard times in 2058 and has found new success in the bullpen, but his 2057 season was outstanding. He went 12-6 with a 3.23 ERA.

Jim “91 Cents” Fleming 2060 Charlotte
Flemng was 10-11 with a 4.19 ERA but a FIP of 3.81 and a FIP- of 87 in 2060.

John “Little Johnny” Rasmussen III 2058 Charlotte
Little Johnny has been very good in Charlotte. In 2058, he finished 16-8 with a 3.69 ERA.

Mauro Mendoza 2058 Charlotte
Mendoza’s first year in Charlotte was a good one. He finished 11-5 with a 3.36 ERA.


RP

Alejandro “Mr. October” Chavez 2058 Charlotte

Only half of the season was played in Charlotte, but in those 36 games, he had 23 saves in 25 opportunities with a 3.16 ERA.
