I didn’t see that thread, but that is a nice lineup to play against those aliens.I actually did this last year during super duper quarantine. I did the alien/time machine theory. If we had to play against a group of aliens but we had a time machine and could grab any player from any season, how would it look. This was mine post segregation

SP - Pedro Martinez (2000). I still think that is one of the most remarkable seasons by a SP of all-time. He put up stats that are absolutely absurd in any era (including the current era) during the steroid era.I actually did this last year during super duper quarantine. I did the alien/time machine theory. If we had to play against a group of aliens but we had a time machine and could grab any player from any season, how would it look. This was mine post segregation

Nice list.
I’d have to slot Gehrig in at 1B though. His season with the ‘27 Yankees (Murderer’s Row) is one for the ages.
1B Lou Gehrig (1927) Age: 24
.373/.474/.765/1.204 220+
52 2B / 47 HR / 183 RBI / 447 TB / 147 Runs
It was an 11.8 WAR season
