All-star team...

SP - Leake
SP - Liriano
SP - Vogelsong
SP - Surkamp
SP - Lincecum

C - Pierzynski
1B - Joseph
2B - Culberson
SS - Duffy
3B - McGehee
LF - Duvall
CF - Davis
RF - Beltran

Not a contending team, but probably not a last-place team either. A solid, all-star outfield with 2 nice starters in the infield. The rotation has no depth, but 3 starters that could start on most other teams.
