The Chicago White Cubs

I recognize that this concept is stupid, which is why I only spent 10 minutes writing this. The following is based barely on stats and mostly on who I would rather root for/like better.

Lineup
CF - Kosuke Fukudome
SS - Orlando Cabrera
LF - Carlos Quentin
DH - Aramis Ramirez
1B - Derek Lee
RF - Jermaine Dye
C - Geovany Soto
2B - Alfonso Soriano
3B - Joe Crede

Bench
Mark DeRosa - 1B, 2B, 3B, OF
Ryan Theriot - 2B, SS
AJ Pierzynski - C
Alexei Ramirez - 2B, SS, OF

Rotation
Carlos Zambrano
Gavin Floyd
Ryan Dempster
John Danks
Jose Contreras

Bullpen
LHP - Boone Logan
LHP - Matt Thorton
RHP - Octavio Dotel
RHP - Kerry Wood
Setup - Scott Linebrink
Setup - Carlos Marmol
Closer - Bobby Jenks

Manager
Ozzie Guillen


(And yes, I know Soriano can't really play second, and Fukudome isn't a center fielder, and that the two everyday players with the highest batting averages are on the bench. Remember, there is no team called the Chicago White Cubs.)

That team would win 125 games.
