Well it depends on what you want you want:

Do you want speed? Fielding wiz? power hitter? All-rounder?

I would suggest:

Juan Pierre
Torii Hunter (how did you guys leave him out?)
Vernon Wells
Alex Rios

My favorite Center fielder is... Mark Teixeira. That's right. In the offseason, sign Mark Teixeira (I've signed him to a 750, 5 year deal) or trade for him (he's fairly easy to get). Then, in Spring Training, convert him to CF. You get a guy with A arm B fld A e res patrolling CF.

You can do the same with James Loney and his mysterious grade-A SPD.

I dunno.
I edited him to BCC, though.

At center, if you want a realisticly good player, a good guy would be Dante Powell. I made him to be a very fast player, as center fielders should be, and is average at everywhere else. :)

It's for PS2.

. . . .and my recommendation of Colby Rasmus has not changed. A good player who can become great if you choose to train him up, like Andy Van Slyke with a higher ceiling:

Yeah, I should have noticed that he's a PS2 player. I would agree with your player Eric. He's not insanely good, but still pretty good. :)

Update....

K well I made my decision on the weekend and here is my starting lineup...

1. Ichiro RF
2. Reyes SS
3. Utley 2nd
4. Pujols 1st
5. Tex DH
6. Beltran CF
7. Wright 3rd
8. Mauer CA
9. Holiday LF

Starting Pitchers
1. Santana
2. Holiday
3. CC
4. Peavy
5. Webb
6. King Felix

Now I am watching the games and things are going pretty well so far. Pujols is struggling but I figure will bounce back.. Peavy has had 4 starts now and has a ERA of .22 he is on fire. One thing I did realize though is yeah I will have to trade some guys or not be able to sign some due to the cost of some of them. I am trying to find cheaper relief pitchers and a cheaper bench through trades. We will see how that goes.

I see you failed to rasie Babe Ruth, Honus Wagner and Ted Williams from the dead. Your team is still pretty good, though.

Trade Santana. He's easily the most expensive member of your team.

yeah i was looking at Sanata but man it would be hard to trade him.. He is for sure a work horse and is pitching really well. One guy I might trade is Webb. Anyone have any suggestions of a A stamina good starter that is cheap?

I think Kazmir is an A.


I know he's not A stamina but... Trading Webb for Lincecum might work. Plus you might be able to throw in a couple other players.

Don't get Webb. He looks great on paper, but he always simulates horribly.

My suggestion is Felix Hernandez (Mariners). Trust me, you won't be disappointed :)
