Let's take a look at the team:
Catcher - Oswowldo Arcia
First Base - Heron Mastroianni
Second Base - Chip Quail
Third Base - Migull Sano
Cool and calm. This bird is the cornerstone of the team and is comfortable on land and water. This will be helpful as this bird team could play home games on the sea.
Shortstop - Denny Hawking
Left and Right Field - Wren Revere and Aawren Hicks
I like a lot of range on the corners. These little guys provide that range. Plus, being kin, they would be able to read each other and make some cool plays in the field and on the base paths.
Center Field - Byron Duckston
The Franchise! Everyone knows that the duck is the Cadillac of birds. Ducks are cool, they quack, and they can bite if you get too close. Plus, they strut around like they own the place. This duck will be patrolling center field for my team for years to come.
Bench - Denny Hockingbird
A bit of a cheat, but having two birds with frosted feathers is going to make the team stronger. The mockingbird is small, but versatile. Hopefully, when my team of birds wins a championship, no one steps on his wing.
Starting Pitchers - Nick Blackbird and Vance Warbler
I like a bit of guile in my starters. I want someone who can go the distance and who won't go away. There are literally blackbirds everywhere, so you know they will go the distance in any given game. Warblers are always chatting, keeping their fielders on their toes and keeping them in the know.
Ok, I get it, this is definitely the weakness of the team. We'll be looking for free agent bird starting pitchers in the off-season. It will be a priority.
Closer - Jesse Crane
Rival - Torii Hunter
You can check the stats for the actual players by clicking their names below. Rest assured, these players in their bird forms would have unique advantages over current players. Ignore the fact that their size and lack of arms would be a complete disadvantage and focus on their ability to fly and swoop. In addition, a pack of birds can look imposing when they fly around all crazy like. Beaks can be sharp too. If you have any players to suggest for a future team, please let me know in the comments.
C - Oswaldo Arcia
1B - Darin Mastroianni
2B - Chip Hale
3B - Miguel Sano
SS - Denny Hocking
LF - Ben Revere
CF - Byron Buxton
RF - Aaron Hicks
Bench - Denny Hocking
SP - Nick Blackburn
SP - Vance Worley
Closer - Jesse Crain
Also, birds have hollow bones. Think about that.
