Guys, please help me put together the perfect black baseball team...

[The Giant]

Here are the rules:

I need a player at each position, and a DH.

I need five starting pitchers, and a closer.

They have to be current players on a major league roster.

They have to be African-Americans. No fake blacks. Example: Torii Hunter would count, but David Ortiz wouldn't. Half blacks would count. Example: Derek Jeter.

Thank you for your help.

Arlodis chapman count

No way.

[Smoke]

Josh Hamilton count?

[The Giant]

Guys, this is a serious thread.

No time for any funny business.

So far my rotation consists of David Price and CC Sabathia. I need three more starters.

[stevenash]

Put McCutchen in CF
Cano at 2B for starters

McCutchen counts. He will be our centerfielder.

Cano? Come on, man. Read the rules.

[The Kraken]

Brittany griner at first

[Smoke]

What about that ogando dude from rangers?

[stevenash]

Cano? Come on, man. Read the rules.

He's mixed black and Dominican

[King Mayan]

Carl Crawford

[playersonly69]

Dwight Gooden

Barry Bonds

Barry Bonds.

Catcher shaquille o neal

[stevenash]

As much as I hate to say it, this thread is already an epic fail

[Noles1992]

C=
1B= Fielder
2B=Phillips
3b= H.Kendrick( sometimes he plays 3rd)
SS=Jeter
OF= Heyward,UPTONS,Kemp, Crawford
DH= Weeks,A.Jones
SP=J.Mcdonald,Jerome Williams,


Can think of plenty of outfielders. Having trouble with pitchers off the top of my head other than what you metioned

[The Giant]

We can mix the black with white, but not with Spanish.

My all-black fantasy league is very strict with their rules.

Good stuff right here.

I'm an Angels fan, and Howie never plays third. That isn't going to fly.

Jerome Williams isn't a starting pitcher either.

Everything else looks pretty good.

Catcher will most likely be Russell Martin, based solely on default.

[actiondan]

Why do black chicks smell like diapers

[Noles1992]

Yeah wasnt sureif Jerome was still in someones rotation

[seaborneq]

Charles Johnson at catcher. If not tony Pena. Why am I adding to this Tom foolery?

[frogsrangers]

C - Are there any black catchers?
1B - Prince Fielder
2B - Brandon Phillips
SS - Jimmy Rollins
3B - Jerry Hairston Jr.???
OF - Justin Upton
OF - Andrew McCutchen
OF - Jason Heyward
DH - Not sure if there are any dedicated black DHs.

P - CC Sabathia

Matt Kemp needs to be in your outfield somewhere.

And I think I take Jeter over Rollins.

I forgot about Edwin Jackson. He should make our five-man rotation.

I can't think of any closers. Fernando Rodney doesn't count.

[bmansell33]

Dontrelle Willis, Jerome Williams, Darren Oliver and CC Sabathia

[seaborneq]

Lee smith at closer. If not Brian Wilson.

[The Giant]

Dontrelle Willis, Jerome Williams, Darren Oliver and CC Sabathia

Darren Oliver possible closer.

He is 42, and still pretty decent.

[bmansell33]

Soriano closer

[frogsrangers]

I am thinking hard of the last time there was a black catcher, the most recent one I can remember is Tony Eusebio or Charles Johnson

[stevenash]

Dontrelle Willis, Jerome Williams, Darren Oliver and CC Sabathia

Willis is currently pitching for the Long Island Ducks in the Atlantic League

Russell Martin. Half black. Close enough.

[stevenash]

Russell Martin. Half black. Close enough.

Yeah, dad is black Canadian, mom is white.

[frogsrangers]

By the way those 4 starting pitchers are the only 4 black starting pitchers I could think of.

[Chi_archie]

Nyjer Morgan


he's a real dirty nyjer

[Chi_archie]

James McDonald for starting pitcher
