What? You don’t think having such hammers in a lineup doesn’t give you a psychological advantage?
Anyway, I personally don’t have
one lineup. I have a few guys I mix in.
C - Piazza, Bench, Realmuto
1B - Gehrig, Bellinger, Bell, Giambi
2B - Cano, Jackie, Morgan, Torres
SS - Honus, Lindor, Ripken
3B - Arenado, Miggy, Brett, Donaldson
RF - Griffey, Dawson, Ruth, Bellinger, Yelich, Harper
Cf - Mays, Griffey, Cobb, Trout
LF Ruth, Cobb, Williams, Griffey, HendersonA. A psychological advantage is very real. Maybe not against everyone. But it's very real. Baseball is 90% mental. You never heard that?
B. Nice rotation for your lineups.

- Mays CF
- Alomar 2B
- Williams/Ruth LF
- Griffey RF
- Honus SS
- Bellenger 1B
- Arenado 3B (the real best 3B in the game)
- Johnny Bench C
Bench:
Williams/Ruth (whoever isn't in LF)
Henderson (Steals Bags)
Ichiro (Defensive sub/bunt specialist)
Pudge (In case I have to use a runner for Bench)
ThomasI like the flexibility of speed and power on the bench, plus having thomas gives me the chance to put Bellenger in the OF later if needed
my lineup with a few tweaks (Ty Cobb is too awesome not to find him some AB's)....and Lindor/Reyes deserve some AB's as well

Not bad but I have to go with Donaldson over Bregman who I consider the best 3rd baseman(personal preference as I'm sure others have different preferences). His swing works better for me. Cano at 2nd again my best at the position. My CAP at catcher and Ketel Marte at shortstop. But Bellinger, Trout and Griffey in outfield. Musial at 1st currently to try him out but big Frank has been my most consistent.
Donaldson is also a great option. And I wish I could get going with Cano, he's my favorite player but I just can't hack with him. Bellinger is great at first too if you ever wanted to try that out.
I have had Bellinger at 1st and mixed in other outfield options but got Musial with that Rare guaranteed pack and wanted to try him out but not in the outfield. As far as Cano goes he isn't my highest 2nd baseman but after rotating around different players I finally just made up a squad of the guys I have been most consistent with which is why he is in it over others, the same for Donaldson and Marte. Donaldson has the most homeruns of anyone on my team but obviously doesnt have the vision or contact of other guys. It's just that he swings great for me. Catcher is my only tricky spot but finally just decided to stick with my created guy since he is at least a switch hitter and has the best fielding for my catchers.

Some of these lineups are psychologically intimidating...lol
Probably not necessary.
You can just expect any thing I comment on to get some sort of sarcastic comment from him, it’s not worth responding to

So if you think a psychological advantage is very real what was your problem with my post. Why is not necessary that the monster lineup bring a certain psychological advantage. I do agree with you that a psychological advantage only impacts the mentally weak. If you surround yourself with the mentally weak this can be a particularly strong advantage.

I don't recall ever mentioning you. Stop stalking me dude. Also I did not realize that you can read sarcasm. The only way you can think that comment is sarcastic is if you think the concept is somehow absurd.
Anyway, please don't ruin this thread as you have done recently by making it about you. Thanks

PudgeDid you ever try Alomar's swing on a CAP? Wouldn't that be a better card? Or am I crazy? Lol
At what position?
2nd base. Only real upside is the vision on Alomar.
I understand the argument but I would go with a balanced cap at second which would give like 89 speed 65 stealing I think with all the best equipment, I’d prefer the better stealing with Alomar because when I get Alomar on 8th with no outs I like to steal him around for the pitcher to bring him in on a groundout

Good call, as soon as I said it I looked at alomar's stats and forgot about the speed and stealing. Hell, I'd be using alomar too if I could get his swing down. I'm a [censored]. Lol.

So then why do you always respond to me. If I make a topic you are 100% going to chime in. When i comment you chime in. When somebody comments about me you chime in. It’s not about you dude. It’s not like I jumped into your very interesting PC gaming thread.

Stop your nonsense lol everybody knows what you’re about now, that’s why most of your posts/comments end up with you arguing, not even with me at that... time for some self reflection as we go into the new year man..

He was pretty fantastic when I used him in the 10th inning moments. I chose him and instantly sold him for 135ish k. He's good, but not 100k better than a free Frank Thomas who's used as a bench bat.

What happened to not responding? What happened to not making everything about you? Please don’t hijack another thread. I know saying everyone is your psychological advantage. However, everybody=everybody who you value=everybody who agrees with you=
. How about we agree to not be so thin skinned and avoid each other. -
