Did the last decade of Major League Baseball have an answer to the 1927 New York Yankees?
That's more or less the question we sought to answer as we tried to pick out the 10 most iconic starting lineups of the 2010s.
Basically, we went looking for starting nines (or eights for National League clubs) that were laden with stars and ultimately productive enough so as to be memorable for a long time.
We limited ourselves to one representative per team, and we considered both regular-season and postseason numbers. Offensive figures mattered most of all, but we gave standout defense its due credit when appropriate.
