2009 All NL East Team Lineup


1. Hanley Ramirez, Marlins ss - Best shortstop and becoming the best player in baseball.
2. Chase Utley, Phillies 2b - Best 2b in baseball coming off an injury
3. Carlos Beltran, Mets CF - Five tool guy a little lazy sometimes but still hits third for us.
4. Chipper Jones, Braves 1B - Masher who gets overlooks, probable hall of famer when it’s all said and done.
5. David Wright, Mets 3b - Gold glover who can hit
6. Brian McCann, Braves C - Maybe the best catcher in the game right now
7. Ryan Howard, Phillies DH - Could be higher if not for prolific strikeout numbers
8. Raul Ibanez, Phillies LF - RBI machine should drive in anything Howard doesn’t.
9. Jimmy Rollins, Phillies RF - He’s an athlete and we need his speed, good arm too.

Backup IF - Ryan Zimmerman, Nationals - Only representative from worst team in baseball.
Backup OF - Jeremy Hermida, Marlins
Pinch Hitter - Carlos Delgado, Mets
Pinch Runner - Jose Reyes, Mets
