Offday Fun - Favorite Player Roster

I thought we need some offday funs (since right now gamedays aren't even fun).

Anyways, list your starting line up of active players consisting only of your favorite players (not necessarily the best).

Mine:

C - Brian McCann:  underrated b/c of Mauer
1b - Julio Franco:  This was tough, but whenever I see him at this age I am amused.
2b - Ray Durham:  He was one of my favorites with the White Sox, and I didn't know who else to pick.
SS - Jose Reyes:  Easy.
3b - Joe Crede:  Easier.
LF - Carl Crawford:  I'd be fine if the White Sox overpayed for him.
CF - Bill Hall:  God.
RF - Vladimir Guerrero:  I was a bigger fan when he was with the Expos and still had his speed.
SP - Pedro Martinez:  Truly dominating and I really hope he can regain that form.

mine
C: Javier Valentin (Cub killer)
1B: Derrek Lee (I know he's a Cub, but he's so good and seemingly a decent guy.  Plus he got a huge hit in the 03 NLCS)
2B: Jose Valentin (my irrational White Sox mancrush)
SS: Hanley Ramirez (Reyes with no fanbase)
3B: Geoff Blum (I read about an important hit he had one time)
LF: Barry Bonds (I like him, sue me)
CF: Curtis Granderson (quality south suburban kid, too bad he's on the Tiggers)
RF: Trot Nixon (my one white grinder)
DH: Big Hurt (legend)
SP: Matt Cain (a no hitter is possible in every start)

Mine
C - Greg Zaun (Been a fan since he was on the Kane County Cougars)
1B - Mark Teixiera (Fantasy team hero)
2B - Valenstache (2B suck so he wins by default)
SS - Arod (It's where he should be playing)
3B - Joe Crede (Man Crush)
LF - El Caballo (I don't care if he's obese now, that Grand Slam vs. the Cubs was a Top 10 moment in my WS history.)
CF - Brian Anderson (j/k) Vernon Wells
RF - Matt Holiday (Guy helped lead me to a Fantasy Baseball title last year)
DH - Big Hurt (Obvious one)
SP - Jake Peavy (Another fantasy team hero)

I tried to do an All-Hair Team...
with facial hair included but it become too difficult (and slightly gay).  Maglio was the captain of this team.
