I'd take this year's team... but I'm all about the pitching. This year's offense isn't as good. We don't have a Beltran and that team didn't pound the ball but they had several 10-15+ HR guys. But I'd take Shields/Santana/Guthrie over May/Lima/Brian Anderson. Good pitching and terrible hitting is usually a better option than good hitting and terrible pitching, if the last 20 years of Royals baseball has taught you anything.
I couldn't even come up with a list of all the guys who started a game for the Royals in 2003... it was a true patchwork rotation. May, Hernandez, Affeldt, Lima, Kyle Snyder, Gobble, even Appier had his comeback stretch. There were a bunch more.
