    I'll say team B because you might not know, some of those players could hit, but team A has too many horrible pitchers.

    I'd rather have team A. With an offense like that, pitchers won't be so stressed to be great out there. They can afford to make mistakes. Team B has a really weak offense so pitchers have got to be on their A game. In a game, if a batter has an off day, there's 8 more to provide support. If a pitcher has an off day, he's on the mound all alone.

    I would take team B. A team like team A, the offense would be pressing because you don't know what you could get out of your pitching staff, even if you're winning by 5 runs.

    With a team like Team B, though, with that rotation and that bullpen, I'd be very comfortable even if they only had a 1-0 lead. With the other team, a lead could change on a dime.

    Holy cow I'm taking Team B any day... You can't lose with those pitchers and the worst offense ever!

    Look at the 08' Tigers, they're a good parallel to Team A.

    a, hitting is the one that gets you the runs and even though those are bad pitchers, you still got a good outfield, but in b all you can do to get them out is strike outs
