MLB Players of the 90s

This topic is highly debatable, so I'd like to see what everyone else has to say. I chose to go with just the 90s because that's what I remember. The basic idea is who I think was the best player for each MLB team of the 1990s.

Arizone Diamondbacks: Jay Bell....not much to choose from here. Matt Williams was my other thought.

Atlanta Braves: Greg Maddux

Baltimore Orioles: Cal Ripken, Jr

Boston Red Sox: Mo Vaughn

California/Anaheim Angels: Tim Salmon...sorry to J.T. Snow

Chicago Cubs: Sammy Sosa

ChiSox: Frank Thomas

Cincinnatti Reds: Barry Larkin

Cleveland Indians: Carlos Baerga...sorry, Albert Belle

Colorado Rockies: Andres Galarraga...only because he was there longer than Larry Walker

Detroit Tigers: Cecil Fielder

Florida Marlins: Gary Sheffield

Houston Astros: Craig Biggio...I'm going with all around over just power hitting

Kansas City Royals: hmmm...not much going on here at all. Brian McRae?

LA Dodgers: Mike Piazza

Brew Crew: Greg Vaughn

Minnesota Twins: Kirby Puckett

Montreal Expos: Marquis Grissom

NY Mets: John Franco

NY Yankees: Derek Jeter

Oakland A's: Mark McGwire

Philadelphia Phillies: Curt Schilling, although I'd like to give an honorable mention to the entire 1993 squad.

Pittsburgh Pirates: Wow...where to go with this one? I'll give this one to Jay Bell too

San Diego Padres: Tony Gwynn

San Francisco Giants: Barry Bonds

Seattle Mariners: Ken Griffey, Jr.

St. Louis Cardinals: Brian Jordan...Ozzie was past his prime, McGwire wasn't there long enough...so I didn't know where to go. Benes was my other thought

Tampa Bay Devil Rays: Wade Boggs

Texas Rangers: Ivan Rodriguez

Toronto Blue Jays: Roger Clemens

As I said before, many of these are highly debatable.

Its hard to say with the D rays and D backs considering how little time they played in the 90s
