Default All Time Orioles Team

All

In future weeks as we get this board rolling again, I will start threads to choose the all time Baltimore team for each position. We'll take 1 position at a time (for the entire 25 man roster, including backups, pen, etc), discuss the players that we have had in Baltimore over the years, and create a consensus suqad of who we think would be the best team that we could have ever fielded (if we would have a time machine, of course). The positions to discuss will be chosen at random and we will leave the discussion open for a long enough time to have good debate about who truly is the best.

I hope this will be great fun for all and a great conversation starter.

Sounds like fun. I have pretty much the entire team I would vote for in mind, although there are a few spots I'm unsure of (i.e. whether the team really has room for 3 shortstops).
