With Crews and Tanks cementing themselves as all-time greats last few seasons, it makes for some lethal lineups.

Cresse, Furniss, Bregman, Walker, Mahtook, Crews, Tanks, etc. It would be hard to pick a DH. So many choices.

Raph Rhymes coming off the bench late in the game to pinch hit. I always liked him.

I’d like to have more speed on that team. Not like we would be sacrificing much at the plate.

Any lineup without Brandon Larson should be thrown out immediately

I'd put that team up against any other all-time team.

Man what a great lineup! Could make several teams! Mike Fontenot, Mikie Mahtook, DJ Lemahieu, and Aaron Hill were pretty damn good.

As much as I like Bregman he isn’t close to Larson as a college hitter.

Bregman ain't on it.

ETA:

He'd be in my starting lineup if we're talking best for field and batting. Figured this hypothetical was just 9 best hitters.

Top of my head the no-brainers:

Larson
Furniss
Belle
White
Crews
Walker

That's a stupid good top 6

Why? Replacing with a first team all American with better defense and much more speed is an option. Especially when you have more than enough power in the lineup already.

You said best batting lineup...you meant pick the best team? My list would be different.
