C: Carlton Fisk
1B:
2B:
3B: Dick Allen
SS: Nomar Garciaparra
SS: Troy Tulowitzki
LF: Frank Robinson
CF: Mike Trout (who did he replace, though?) Fred Lynn
RF: Shoeless Joe Jackson

Joe is the second best rookie 2B. The first had one wonderful season and for some reason (injury? military? poor play?) never came anywhere close to equaling that first year. We have a card of his, but his rookie season might be of some use. He managed later on in the majors, but with no great success. The 1B had some fine years, very good OBP, 20 HR power. We have his rookie year in the set, but its price would seem to suggest that WAR doesn't necessarily translate to exorbitant pricing.
