So since we have been getting the Extra Innings package on DirecTV, I’ve been watching a lot more baseball lately. And during the lulls in play, I’ve been watching a lot more baseball players lately. Lemme tell you something, there are a lot of eminently straddleworthy ballplayers out there. I commented to my boyfriend that Mark Grace is the lynchpin in my team…my dreamy team, that is. And thus sprang the idea of my personal Dreamy Teamy. Here’s what I propose, for starters:
P:Greg Maddux, Atlanta Braves. I just love the professorial look he has with his glasses on. When he opens his mouth, it’s another story…but hey, this is about looks, and he’s a cutie.
C: Javy Lopez, Atlanta Braves. I loves me some Latin boys, and he’s as cute as they come.
1B: Duh. Mark Grace, Arizona D-Backs (sob). I would have asked him to go to my prom. How can I make him love me? [sub](Even if he is getting sorta leathery, I still love him)[/sub]
**2B: **Having trouble here.
3B: Johnny Damon, Oakland A’s. Have you seen this guy? Holy shit! Robin Ventura, NY Met, former White Sock, also is worth mentioning.
SS: I’ll go with the crowd here and say Derek Jeter, Yankees. But Barry Larkin of Cincy is easy on the eyes as well.
RF: Dave Martinez, Atlanta Braves. Okay, he’s another holdover as a former Cub (and White Sock) but objectively speaking, he is so boneable as to defy explanation.
CF: Ken Griffey, Jr., Cincinnati Reds. He’s a wholesome-looking guy.
And for the AL fans…
DH: David Justice, NY Yankees.
Hm. Reviewing this, I see the team is awfully Atlanta-heavy. This displeases me.
So, step up to the plate! Add your dreamy boys of summer to a very…special…fantasy league. Ohhhh yeah.
