I know there's no DH this year, but I can't not put Youk on the roster, and there should be a DH!

Other than being a full season ticket holder for the Dodgers I don't follow the NL very closely (Tigers fan) so my NL ballot is going to be a yes/no vote for each of the Dodgers.
Also, I'm a big fan of taking guys that have never gone so if one of them is even close they get my vote.
C: Martinez
1B: Youkilis (never been)
2B: Polanco (never been)
SS: Carlos Guillen (maybe, I'm not impressed with his glove but Jeter's isn't much better either)
3B: Rodriguez
OF: Ichiro
OF: Ordonez/Granderson (never been). I figured I shouldn't put 2 Tigers in the OF so take your pick of the 2. Ordonez is clearly more deserving though.
OF: Guerrero
SP: Haren (never been)
SP: Verlander (never been)
That's enough of that.
NL:
C: Martin - sure
1B: Garciaparra - no way
2B: Kent - probably not
SS: Furcal - probably not
3B: Betemit - no way in ****. His OPS+ is 102 but I still can't support a guy with a BA of .198
OF: Gonzalez - maybe
OF: Pierre - no
OF: Ethier - no
SP: Penny - yes
SP: Lowe - yes
SP: Wolf - no
SP: Schmidt, Kuo, other - no way
RP: Saito - yes
That's too many yes votes for the Dodgers but the guys with a yes are at least worthy of consideration.
