There's been some discussion of this in other threads, but I want to give this topic its own thread. If you were to start a franchise, from scratch, which player(s) would you start with? You can list one or multiple players. I'm not going to make this a poll because of the vast options.
I might take Grady Sizemore. He's got everything: power, average, speed, and fielding. He's young and he's cheap.
