    Livan Hernandez or Edgar Gonzalez?

    I've been in the process of banner creation/design for quite some time now and versus getting new pictures of players in the old uniforms, until action pictures that are suiting are released, I am going with the press release pictures. A bit pointless yes, but it will take some time for there to be pictures I would want to use in game actions. And unlike the Reds, the Diamondbacks actually had at least a couple players of significance to model the uniforms (with them swinging a bat, with a ball and glove, ie: I could put them on the banner), the only problem is that Webb's pictures I've seen were pretty poor and just wouldn't be fitting. So until I can get a choice action shot of him for the banner down the road, who would you rather see on the banner between these two as they were the best pictures of pitchers wearing a new uni.

    Just vote if you care. I am primarily making this poll so you guys know I didn't choose to keep a guy lof B Webb's caliber from being on the banner for his team.

    Thanks.

    Nothing good out of John Conor Jackson or Carlos Quentin? Or Drew.

    Alright, clearly go with the young guy cause Hernandez could easily be traded during the season. And I don't know about you, but having a guy with an ERA almost around 5... isn't banner material.

    Big Unit's a D-Back, you know.

    Out of everyone: General makes a great point. Unit's the biggest name left, possibly the best non Brandon Webb choice. Additionally, new guy Doug Davis, in spite of last year, has been very good for the two years prior.

    Among the Two: Edgar Gonzalez is young enough to be worth a shot

    Then out of fairness to the others you will be Slagathor.

    I got a perfectly fine picture of a batter. And of course I realize RJ is a D'Back again, but his pictures are press pictures at the conference for his trade and just not suiting. Even though the ones I am selecting from are media pictures as well, they do have somewhat of a game type feel to them since I suppose they were what was distributed on AP.

    Edgar Gonzalez is my choice though as well.

    I would say Edgar and Randy.

    No problem. And just to clarify, I really was limited in these pictures to Livan Hernandez, Edgar Gonzalez and Brandon Webb (Webb wasn't selected as the picture cut off at both of his arms and he was just smiling versus the other pictures having no cutoff and them with a glove and a ball.) Edgar will be on it, but when I can find action pics of RJ or Webb that is suiting, it will be changed.

    Thanks again.
