Re: What's you starting lineup and why ?

This is my current team. I also picked up Edwin Encarnacion and I will be picking up more Blue Jays to get the 95 Joey Bats and then after that Ichiro. I also spend a lot of time flipping. Working on the AL to get that 99 Arod and then eventually the NL for Stoker and Robinson.

My Rotation includes, 91 Gaylord Perry, Adam Wainwright, Tanaka, and Carlos Martinez. My bullpen includes Robertson, Betances, Chapman, Axford, Miller and a few others. Notable bench players are 89 Fred McGriff and 86 Domonic Brown. I had one stretch of 4 consecutive conquest games where Brown hit a pinch hit home run in each to either tie or take the lead. He is an awesome power guy

Re: What's you starting lineup and why ?

I am bumping this thread. This is my starting lineup and i am really happy with it. I just unlocked Arod on the weekend, so i havent used him much. I did hit a HR with him the first pitch he saw so i think that is a good sign lol. Right now i am flipping and i think i am going for Harper next

Just curious, I see you have 93 Hanley Ramirez, is there a reason you don't have the 93 Giancarlo Stanton even on your bench?

I like this whole team because i either earned it through the innings missions or as a post game reward. I did not spend any actual money on the game and only bought a couple packs with stubs earned through the game

Yeah, he only hits one side well and his PCI is small and hard for me to use. Nelson Cruz rakes more against lefties for me, could be just the stance as well.

Re: What's you starting lineup and why ?

1. FB Ichiro CF
2. Gwynn RF
3. FB Matt Kemp LF
4. Goldschmidt 1B- I have hit way better with him then FB fielder, and he is a much better defensive player
5.Josh Donaldson 3B- I've found him better offensively then FB beltre, machado and Arenado while still being great defensively
6. Cal Ripken JR as of now but I've been better with Correa
7. Posey- Not quite what i hoped offensively but defensively has thrown almost everyone out.
8. Altuve- hitting great and defensively my best player along with ichiro
9. Pitchers spot

Pitchers:
1. Kershaw
2. Astros Nolan Ryan
3. Juan Marichal
4. David Price
5. Syndergaard/Bumgarner depending on IE

Re: What's you starting lineup and why ?

As of right now my complete lineup is:

RF- Flashback Ichiro Suzuki - 93
CF- Mike Trout - 99
LF- Bryce Harper - 99
C- CAP - 99 everything
1B- Flashback Prince Fielder - 96
3B- Flashback Adrian Beltre - 98
SS- Carlos Correa - 91
P- Pitcher's Spot - n/a
2B- Dee Gordon - 90

Bench:

Flashback Jose Bautista - 95
Giancarlo Stanton - 93
Jose Altuve - 96
Flashback Carl Crawford - 90
Anthony Rizzo - 92

When I'm facing a LHP, I sub out Harper, Fielder and Gordon and replace them with Stanton, Bautista and Altuve respectively. I also swap Ichiro down to the 9 spot and have Altuve lead off. The rest of the order remains the same.

I am extremely pleased with this team from top to bottom.
