MLB Dream Team Challenge

UPDATE: MLB Network Radio responded to my Facebook post and directed me to a different salary website: http://www.baseballprospectus.com/compensation/cots/. It was here I found that Tulowitzki was making $20 mil as opposed to the $16 mil I had him at for this year. Therefore, I needed to make a change and it was in the closers role. Hopefully, this one will work. :)

MLB Network Radio's Power Alley duo of Mike Ferrin and Jim Duquette put out a challenge to all baseball fans - create your dream team based on the following rules:


The most difficult part of this was making sure I only had three guys UNDER 25. I have three guys UNDER 25....but three guys who are also 25. :)

Here's my roster:


Pos
Name
Salary
           Age
C
Jonathan Lucroy
$3,400,000
28
1B
Anthony Rizzo
$5,000,000
25
2B
Jose Altuve
$2,687,500
24
SS
Troy Tulowitzki
$20,000,000
30
3B
Josh Donaldson
$4,300,000
29
LF
Bryce Harper
$2,500,000
22
CF
Mike Trout
$5,250,000
23
RF
Giancarlo Stanton
$6,500,000
25
SP
Madison Bumgarner
$6,750,000
25
RP
Zach Britton
$3,200,000
27
$59,587,500

Not bad, eh? The salaries are their 2015 salary so don't get caught up on guys like Stanton and Trout. That is their salary for this year.  I'm playing by the rules. :)

Give it a try yourself. Post your lineups here and on Facebook at MLB Network Radio's page.
