    I've made it to the Ohtani Boss Mission with the score 8-15. So I need 8 runs. I think 7 is the most I've ever scored agains Verlander. However, that was with more RH bats than LH bats.

    My current lineup is as follows:
    LS Dee Gordon
    LS Danny Santana
    LS Yordan Alvarez
    LS Justin Upton
    FOTF Ohtani
    LS Shin-Soo Choo
    LS Tommy La Stella
    LS Kyle See her
    LS Kiner-Falefa (Common catcher. Can probably sub in one of my bench: All righties though. LS Mateo, LS Semien, LS Simmons, LS Andrus, and LS Ponder)

    That's 6 ladies, 1 switch, and 2 righties.

    Would you jump into Verlander, down 8 with this lineup? Or would you risk it and try to play out to get more players/runs?

    I can say the ONE time I beat Ohtani, I lost to the next 3 bosses. And the ONLY reason I played is because I messed up in earlier matchups and only had 5 or 6 runs.

    If it helps, my perks are the Silver AND Gold Heart Attacks: Contact Boost while Losing and the Bronze Defribillator which gives contact boost on 0-0, 1-1, and 2-2 counts.

    6 ladies sounds like more than enough lol.

    Personally I would skip Ohtani. But it depends on how good a player you are if you can beat Verlander down 15-8.

    I think the better question is how much pitching did you draft that your team still looks like that

    You have a pretty solid lineup but personally I would probably try to beat Ohtani. I got all the AL West affinities to 70 through showdown and I only played Ohtani when I didn’t have Olson, Gallo, Trout, or Cahna. Those 4 make Verlander really easy IMO

    I would jump right into Verlander unless you have no trouble vs Ohtani. I find Verlander is much easier

    Take it this way, you think it’ll be easier to get 4runs with 10 outs vs Ohtani or 8 runs in 20 outs vs Verlander?

    Funny enough, he seems to hit bombs off Verlander.

    Canha has one of the best no doubt HR animations in the game.
