Get ready for the early primaries by comparing MLB players born in Iowa and New Hampshire

The Iowa caucus is finally here, which leads to the New Hampshire primary and then, before you know it, it'll be Super Tuesday. Of course, political candidates from both parties will be giving stump speeches and running plenty of ads, fighting to secure votes wherever they can. But here at Cut4, we want to focus on the issues. Specifically, which state is better at baseball, Iowa or New Hampshire?
Sure, "Field of Dreams" is set in Iowa, but Ken Burns lives in New Hampshire, so they're pretty even on the "contributions to baseball pop culture" front. That means we need to find out who has the edge when it comes to athletic skill. To solve this mystery, we made two teams of players born in each state. And since this is about our great democracy, we'll let you vote for your favorite team at the end.
A heads up as you consider the teams -- 217 MLB players were born in Iowa, compared to New Hampshire's 51, which means that Iowa has a much deeper bench. (Also, we've chosen to forgo designated hitters.)

Six Iowan players are now in the Hall of Fame, and all of them made our team. A list:
1B Cap Anson: Career WAR 93.9
SS Dave Bancroft: Career WAR 48.5
LF Fred Clarke: Career WAR 67.8
RHP Red Faber: Career WAR 65.2
RHP Bob Feller: Career WAR 65.2
RHP Dazzy Vance: Career WAR 62.5        
That's an embarrassment of riches for any one team, but there's more. The pitching staff has three HOFers and two young guns in Michael Wacha (6 WAR) and Jeremy Hellickson (6.9 WAR). We didn't include relievers, but Pirate and Iowan Tony Watson is definitely in the bullpen. You like utility players? Great, because Jerry Hairston the younger (13.6 WAR), was born in Des Moines and though we have him at second base, he's played every position but pitcher and catcher.
Speaking of catchers, Iowan A.J. Hinch produced just 0.1 WAR across parts of seven MLB seasons, but is quickly making a name for himself in the Astros dugout. Why not bring back the player-manager? The rest of the team is rounded out with Denis Menke at third (28.1 WAR) and Ken Henderson (14.8 WAR) and Ryan Sweeney (6.5 WAR) in the outfield.
Team Iowa Cumulative WAR: 482.3
 
At third base for Team New Hampshire is dead-ball era superstar and great nickname possessor Arlie Latham. They called him "The Freshest Man on Earth." And Latham had speed -- he's still eighth on the all-time stolen bases list (with 739), and was the oldest player to steal a base, at 49. Joining him are second baseman Bernie Friberg (4.1 WAR) and shortstop Red Rolfe (23.5 WAR).
Patrolling the outfield are Sam Fuld (4.8 WAR), Phil Plantier (2.3 WAR) and Joe Lefebvre (3.8 WAR). Catching is Harry Bemis (10.4 WAR), best known for being run over at the plate by Ty Cobb.
While Team Iowa has an incredible rotation, the Granite State has Cy Young Award-winners Chris Carpenter (35.3 WAR) and Mike Flanagan (26 WAR) Bob Tewksbury (21.5 WAR), Stan Williams (23.5 WAR) and Lefty Tyler (23.3 WAR). Current Pirates starter Jeff Locke, born in North Conway, N.H., just missed making the list.   
Final note: In almost all cases, we tried to choose players who had accumulated the most WAR at their positions. However, we couldn't help but put Art Nichols at first base, because he once played for a team called the Chicago Orphans and we think that kind of story can really make him sympathetic to the voters.
Team New Hampshire Cumulative WAR: 205.2
Mathematically at least, Iowa has come out on top. But even though we've heard from the numbers, we haven't heard from you. Now's your chance to make your vote count - let us know which team you think would win below.
