Is there a more cush job in sports than a Non-Roster Invitee to Spring Training?  Come down to Arizona for the winter and live/eat/play with the guys and maybe you'll get a big league gig.  I'm waiting anxiously for my invitation.

With Cactus & Grapefruit games set to start next week this is a good time to see how your favorite team will fair in 2015.

Spring Training rosters can be very fluid, so be sure and check the daily transactions.  The Tigers have already released Joel Hanrahan.

Select an exclusive team and twist any player on the 40-Man roster or Non-Roster Invitees to any season of their career.

No duplicate franchises allowed.

Rules:

• $90 Million cap
• YES: DH, injuries

The Braves sure had an interesting off season!

Dodgers please

Dodgers just signed Mike Adams!

When (believe it or not) Ronny Cedeno signed w/ the Giants it killed my Phillies build...
Crap...

Going to be a long year in Philly!
