If our Seahawk players were on an MLB team, what position would they play, who would bat where in the lineup, and what would our rotation look like?

Here's what I got

Starting lineup

1) CF - Earl Thomas (Great lead off hitter with excellent speed on the bath path. Gold glove centerfielder with the best range in the MLB)
2) LF - Percy Harvin (Jacoby Ellsbury type player with 60-70 sb ability. Great range at LF but only an average arm)
3) 1B - Kam Chancelor (A Giancarlo Stanton type of power hitter with above average speed and a good glove at first)
4) RF - Richard Sherman (A taller Tori Hunter in his prime with similar power numbers and gold glove abilities)
5) DH - Bobby Wagner (An athletic, in shape, and well built Prince Fielder)
6) 3B - Bruce Irvin (Curtis Granderson/Alfonso Soriano type player. Hits for low avg, good power, and ks a lot. Okay in the field)
7) C - Zach Miller (AJ Pierzynski type player. Older but still productive for .270 15 hrs 65 rbis)
8) 2B - Doug Baldwin (Jose Altuve type player. Short and overlooked, but works hard and overachieves)
9) SS - Paul Richardson (A Juan Pierre with a solid avg, no power, but excellent speed)


Starting Rotation

1) Russell Wilson - Not necessarily a hard thrower (only 90 mph) but has an array of pitches (change up, cutter, slider), has excellent control, and has supreme composure.
2) Tavaris Jackson - An AJ Burnett type pitcher with a strong arm, good stuff, but inconsistent control. A solid #2 that can win 14-15 games
3) Steven Hauschka - Very Jamie Moyer like. Not the strongest arm, but is crafty and has great control.
4) BJ Daniels (A young pitcher with potential. James Paxton minus the injury)
5) Keith Price (A solid #5 with decent potential)

Closer - Terrell Pryor (98-100 mph fastball and great slider. Failed as a starter, but converted to a closer and excels in the role)


I think if the Mariners could field this lineup, we'd win 95 games. Our lineup has so much speed and a good mix of power in the middle of the lineup. Our starting rotation isn't anything special, but we have a stud ace pitcher in Russell and solid options from 2 to 5 who work hard and are productive.

I would switch Richardson and Sherman. Imagine an outfield of Harvin, Thomas and Richardson. No balls would ever drop in!
