Yeah - but you could create a 1-161 team from a lot of the 2009 roster:

1B - Coste
2B - Jason Smith
SS - Kata
3B - Aaron Boone
C - Quintero
RF - Abercrombie
CF - Michaels
LF - Erstad

Starting rotation: Backe, Ortiz, Paulino, Hampton, Moehler

I know it's a joke, but that team would probably win about 50 games. People who run these kind of scenarios claim that a replacement level team should win about 60 games and a bad AAA team would win about 40 games in the majors.
