Pretty good list. But you should include the Washington Senators years just so you could put Walter Johnson at the front of that rotation. :)

Think I'd have to put Chuck Knoblauch in there somewhere

Seconded. They should be up for inclusion.... just as the current Washington team would be almost entirely made up of Expos.

I third. Just so you could add Sam Rice in there

Talk about a guy that should have stayed put, huh?

I thought about using Washington Senators like Sam Rice and Walter Johnson, but I figured I'd stay with guys that played in Minnesota.
As to Chuck Knoblauch, he was certainly a decent player for the Twins, but I like Carew a whole lot better. Chuck is still waiting for Cooperstown to call.
