The 90s team is stacked but would never pass the drug test.

Im tempted to take the 60s team. Koufax and Gibson twice each in a 7 game series. But the 90s team is just as stacked with pitching and better hitting.

If we are not discounting for PEDs then that 90s team is ridiculous. Incredible power.

That 60s team is going to be tough to be. Pitching is stacked...

Yea for the sake of even having an argument, we should say no PEDs allowed.

No love for these guys? Must be some young whippersnappers up in here.

No PED's? Then the 50 and 60s teams are screwed without greenies. I'll take the the 1930s then...

I want to see 60s versus 90s.

Game 1: Sandy Koufax v. Randy Johnson
Game 2: Bob Gibson v. Roger Clemens
Game 3: Juan Marichel v. Greg Maddux
Game 4: Jim Bunning v. Tom Glavine

And the lineups are completely stacked. Would pay to watch.

80s is probably the worst team you came up with.

As much as I love Glavine, just no way I start him in a 7 game series. OP should stick with 3 starters and a relief pitcher. Have John smoltz pitching relief for the 90s. Not sure who I'd have in relief for the 60s
