    Just curious to what people think. If you had every player in the game, what would be your lineup, and your rotation/bullpen?

    I don't have the energy to type this all out. Pass. It's all relative anyways.

    Im not gonna go through all the positions, but i think this year more contact is in more favor than power. So where as years past a 90-100 contact guy with 110+ power would be more sought after, this year it seems a guy with 115+ contact and about 85-105 power works just fine. Obviously having a lot of both is best but just something I seemed to notice.

    Pitching is obvious we all know how that goes.

    My point to this was not to have negative responses. Just curious what people would consider the best at each position. For example I would use

    Cap c
    Votto 1b
    Betts 2b
    Honus ss
    Chipper 3b
    Hank lf
    Mantle center
    Vlad rf
    Starters Felix verlander degrom leiter nolan
    Relief Chapman Miller goose Jansen dibble Rivera lee smith reyes

    Go watch any YouTuber like Koogs, Littleman, YFK, etc. And you will see most of their lineups are identical. It’s thanks to Koogs that I can’t stand the term “God Squad” anymore lol.

    Yeah, Meta and God Squad drive me insane. What does CAP mean? Sorry, I'm not a veteran gamer.

    I get where you're coming from, if we each had to run one lineup out there who would it be? That's so hard to answer because so many players bring different things to the table. Chipper, Soriano, Trea Turner, Adley, Vlad Jr. And Vlad Sr., Acuna, Realmuto, Mantle, Larkin, George Brett, Wander, all of these and more I use regularly. It's hard for me to break it down to one lineup.

    CAP is your “create a player”. Fake person that ppl usually make crazy player builds to be toxic and get an advantage on ppl.

    At this point you could probably build a team of all guys with 90 plus speed that can hit bombs along with 110 plus contact vs L/R.

    That's my goal, I doubt I will achieve every card in the game because I just don't have the patience to flip cards for more than like 30 mins at a time but I definitely have a good percentage and that is pretty close to what I would run out there if I used my best players. I still need to hit more with Adley to be convinced that ASG Realmuto isn't my best option. Larkin, Wagner, Wander, Rollins and Trea are a revolving platoon because I love them all equally. I'm not good with commitment.

    The Cards I covet the most and don't have are Verlander, Musial and Lindor.

    Meta is an acronym that stands for “Most effective tactics available”. Basically, it means the most effective way to achieve the goal in the game. It’s also completely arbitrary because everyone has a different opinion of what is most important at achieving the goal of winning. There is no consensus as to how the best way to achieve this goal. Meta is an incorrect term being used by the op in this thread because a lineup is personal preference not a community agreed upon consensus. Therefore by literal interpretation this cannot be Meta. Hope this helps with understanding the term.
