Cards all-Latino Team

OK, on todays thread there was discussion of the Cardinals not having any African American players.  This led me to post my favorite all-Black Cardinal team, which was as follows:
1st - Dimitri Young
2nd - Delino DeShields
3rd - Pendelton
SS - Ozzie
P - Gibson
C - Marcus Jensen (someone else thought of this)
OF - Willie
OF - Brock
OF - Flood
DH - Lonnie Smith

And so now I present my all-Latino Cardinals:
1st - Galaragga....just kidding, AP
2nd - Julian Javier
3rd - Fernando Tatis
SS - Edgar
P - Joaquin
C - Tony Pena
OF - Juan Enc
OF - Felix Jose
OF - David Green
Util - Jose Oq.
DH - Pedro

I think Bob Gibson would take this team.

All AA team
1st should be Bill White...  Willie and Flood would be an impressive defensive outfeild, I doubt they'd ever give brock a chance to catch a ball.

Seems like
Ray Lankford should be on there somewhere too.

You're correct.

Word is that
he's hispanic and black, was born in NYC, but was raised in the DR, so was counted as hispanic for the purposes of this.

Gotcha
I had heard that he's as Brooklyn as Brooklyn gets.

Agreed...
Bill White.  I'd put Silent George Hendrick or Ray Lankford at DH before I put Lonnie Smith.
