Re: What's you starting lineup and why ?

Lineup
1. 93 Ichiro CF - 98 rated if you move him to center
2. 95 Gwynn RF
3. 90 Bogaerts SS - Only hitting third so he can split up the lefties near the top
4. 96 Fielder 1B
5. 98 Beltre 3B
6. 90 Edmonds LF - 97 rated if you move him to left
7. 89 Sandoval C - 90 rated catcher despite mediocre arm. Hitting stats are second at C only to Prime Mauer.
8. 91 Cano 2B
9. Pitcher

Rotation
1. Sale
2. Syndergaard
3. Strasburg
4. deGrom - Absolutely sick 2 seamer with good secondary pitches
5. Price - Gonna need to replace him eventually. Lack of slider makes him underwhelming.

Bullpen
MR Holland - Best splitter/slider combo in the game. Maybe even better than FB Papelbon
MR Chapman
MR Miller
MR Jansen
SU Betances
SU 93 Wagner
CL 95 Papelbon - I've torched him before and I've seen others hit him as well, but if you mix in that splitter correctly, he's really hard to hit.

Bench
OF/3B 95 Bautista - Good to platoon vs. lefties with Edmonds/Gwynn.
OF 94 Holliday - Defense is too crappy to start. Good pinch hitter or platoon with Edmonds.
IF/OF 94 Zobrist - Platoons vs. lefties at 2B for me. Sneaky power vs. lefties.
OF 90 Crawford - Great defensive replacement/pinch runner. Has ability to be an awesome pinch hitter as well.
C 89 Pierzynski - Not as good of a hitter as I had hoped, but you can't argue against 75/90 contact and power vs. R.
