Slightly OT: Your Undrafted All-Star Team

I know this community is home to many fantasy players, so I decided to go and ask you guys to contribute your own versions of this idea.  Granted, a player does not need to have been undrafted, per se to make your list, but more so, it is about players who greatly surpassed their projected values.  My "Undrafted All Stars":

C: A.j. Pierzinski

1B: Mark Reynolds

2B: Aaron Hill

SS Jason Bartlett

3B: Ryan Zimmerman

OF: Michael Bourn

OF: Jason Werth

OF: Andre Ethier

DH: Adam Lind

SP: Chris Carpenter

SP: Josh Johnson

SP: Ubaldo Jiminez

SP: Jair Jurjens

SP: Scott Feldman

CL: Heath Bell

CL: Andrew Bailey

 

I'd love to see everyone else's version.  Let's have some fun here.  And remember, WE PLAY TO WIN THE GAME

Hmm

I’d throw in Ryan Franklin for CL, Nelson Cruz for OF, Billy Butler for DH/1B, Justin Verlander and Zach Greinke for SP (yes, they were rated well, but both have performed incredibly well- above and beyond what many expected them to).

I don't think Napoli's season has been unexpected at all.

How about Kurt Suzuki? #6 catcher in 5×5 leagues so far, and hasn’t been mentioned yet.

Jason Kubel for DH

Deolis Guerra = Daniel Cabrera ?
I tend to think so

just curious

why are you calling it an undrafted all star team if what you mean is it’s an underrated all star team?

I don't know

I kinda took more time with the post itself than the title to be honest haha

perhaps undrafted in many fantasy leagues?

my team.

c. Miguel Montero
1b.Mark Reynolds
2b.Aaron Hill
ss.Ben Zobrist
3b.Pablo Sandoval
of. Michael Bourn
of. Nyjer Morgan
of. Shin-Soo Choo
dh.Adam Lind
sp Randy Wolf
sp Wandy Rodriguez
sp Joel Pinero
sp Jason Marquis
sp Barry Zito
cl. Heath Bell
cl. Trevor Hoffman (I thought he was done)

I tried to list just guys that on draft day in my league I wanted nothing to do with. All are having great years and were considered to not be nearly this good.

pablo sandoval

ok so i would have wanted him but i never dreamed he’d be this good right off the bat. Barry Zito I still hate but he is having a good year. To bad for SanFran they probably won’t make the playoffs:-(
