Project Idea.

shabagel · 03-21-2013, 06:51 PM

Here's the idea, get one Bowman Chrome or Bowman (maybe even Best) auto of players depicted in Red Sox uniforms (Base or refractor non autos on super expensive players or some players with no autos and no close replacement) and create a line up of what ifs. It would be my all Red Sox prospect team since 2000. Only players with 1st Bowman cards in a Red Sox uniform will be considered. Open to suggestions for players. Not positive on doing this, but if I do this will be an update thread.

My early list

C- Kelly Shopach
1B-Anthony Rizzo
2B- Freddy Sanchez
3B- Will Middlebrooks
SS- Hanley Ramirez
RF David Murphy
CF Jacoby Ellsbury
LF Josh Reddick
DH- Kevin Youkillis

SP Jon Lester
SP Clay Buchholz
SP Justin Masterson (Cleveland. Traded July 2009 with Nick Hagodone and Bryan Price for Victor Martinez)

SP Felix Doubront
SP ?

Bench- OF Matt Murton
Bench- OF Daniel Nava
Bench- SS/2B Jed Lowrie
Bench- C Ryan Lavarnway
Bench- 1B/OF Brandon Moss

CP- Jonathan Papelbon
SU-Daniel Bard BOS

SU
RP Craig Breslow
RP Nick Hagodone Cleveland,traded july 2009 with Masterson and Bryan Price for Victor Martinez

RP

Stumped on the rest

I would have said Anibal Sanchez but not sure he has a Bowman auto.

He was one of my 1st thought, but couldn't find a bowman auto or card of him in a Red Sox uniform

phabphour20 · 03-21-2013, 07:33 PM

Lavarnway at C?

phabphour20 · 03-21-2013, 08:01 PM

Lowrie at 2nd?

phabphour20 · 03-21-2013, 08:02 PM

Bard at closer? Or Paps?

If I fill out the roster, will take a stab at this

shabagel · 03-23-2013, 04:29 AM

Is the last rotation spot weak enough that Kyle Wieland fits?

Cornerstore · 03-23-2013, 09:51 AM

Bench ideas Jose Iglesias - good handed ss, some speed
Lars anderson - 1b backup

Cornerstore · 03-23-2013, 09:56 AM

Bowmans best - Bullpen Hideki Okajima
OF bench - David Murphy
C Bench - Kelly Shoppach

Thanks! Added both to the bench. Already have a Lars, so no need to buy one.

I like the idea of an all-chrome team to collect.

It doesn't work with every team though, I tried it with my Brewers

NOTE: the term all-chrome team should be taken loosely because all brewers players with a chrome auto are on the team

All-Chrome Brewers Team
C – Jason Belcher (only catcher Chrome I think)
1B – Prince Fielder
2B – Rickie Weeks
3B – Ryan Braun (listed as 3B on card)
SS - Scooter Gennett (Listed as SS on card, I think also the only Brewers SS Chrome Auto)
LF – Khris Davis
CF – Mitch Haniger
RF – Tyrone Taylor

Bench
Hunter Morris
Matt LaPorta
Scooter Gennett again (because has autos in 2010 and 2012 he gets counted twice!)
Daryl Clark

Rotation (old school four man rotation)
Mark Rogers (3 career MLB starts!)
Taylor Jungmann
Jed Bradley
Evan Fredrickson

Bullpen
CL – Eric Arnett (3 career minor league saves!)
SU – Cody Scarpetta
Roberto Miniel
Long Reliever - Cody Adams

lambeauleap87 · 03-23-2013, 10:43 AM

Throw Nick Hagadone on that list as a reliever.

BostonNut · 03-23-2013, 10:45 AM

Wow...sounds like a great project! Good luck.

That's why I have the Non auto available as well. Hard to stick to autos only. Then you could add Yovani Gallardo,Corey Hart and JJ hardy. But, yeah some teams are harder than others. Make sure you keep Morris, kids a stud.

Was debating him. The whole breaking hand punching wall thing though...

Thanks! Rizzo,Middlebrooks,Ellsbury and Hanley will be the hard ones.

shabagel · 03-24-2013, 07:53 PM

Anyone have a 5th starter suggestion?

RedSoxFan28 · 03-26-2013, 08:50 PM

Michael Bowden, he has a 2006 Bowman SOTF, but no Chrome
