If the Pelicans were to fill out a baseball lineup, a fun team could be built around Zion Williamson, Lonzo Ball and Brandon Ingram

Whether morally right or wrong considering the times, sports are back, with basketball and baseball returning to American lives. While baseball kicked off their regular season last week, the NBA will do the same this Thursday as the New Orleans Pelicans and Utah Jazz will open the eight seeding game schedule in Orlando’s restart.

Considering the reemergence of these two sports leagues so closely together, it gave me an idea. What if the Pelicans had been a part of MLB’s opening day? Could they have put out a fun team on the diamond? Well, with some help from The Bird Writes staff, I took a shot at building the best New Orleans lineup that could walk into a professional dugout and not embarrass themselves.
