Young man we need to discuss lineup construction.
This is not BR, no way Mantle should be leading off.
Especially when you consider the rest of your lineup.I know you love Rizzo, but he has no place in your lineup this late in the cycle.
There are tons of better 1B.
Save Rizzo for conquest and the Ruth grind if you insist on using him.
Eventually Ruth should be your 1B.
Would you mind helping me with my lineup? I now have 99 Robert in for Rizzo. Him and Belli Switched of course. So now I have: Mantle. Biggio. Sheffield. Tatis. Bellinger. Perez. Trout. Robert.
Could you help me out?
EDIT: I have had Rizzo in because I love his swing, but I moved him to the bench.
I know that Robert will be leading off. Need help with the rest.
I normally try to have L, R, L. Or something like that to make sure I am not vulnerable, but I am willing to change.
I am going to play a RS game in a bit, once I get some lineup help. -

Using the guys you mentioned....- Tatis R
- Trout R
- Mantle S
- Sheffield R
- Bellinger L
- Robert R
- Biggio R
- Perez R
You need to improve your catcher.
Grandal (2020 Postseason) is slow but is a switch hitter to further diversify your lineup.Or if Robert is leadoff
1 Robert
2 Trout
3. Mantle
4. Sheffield
5. Bellinger
6. Tatis
7. Biggio
8. PerezGetting Grandal would let you drop Biggio to 8 and have a big bat behind the speed/power hitter at 6 (Tatis or Robert)
-
Lineup is too righty heavy. Get Cobb or Walker if you can afford it. Catcher I’d recommend a CAP. Grandal is incredibly slow and has a bad arm.
Ideally, here is your lineup with those changes:
LF Cobb. (If Walker, hit 3rd and move Trout and Mantle up)
CF Trout
RF Mantle
SS Tatis
1B Belli (upgrade here soon with Ruth or Gehrig)
3B Sheffield
C CAP
2B Biggio -

I have the flashback Grandal. Would that be ok, or should I get this one? I can buy Posada if needed. But that would hurt my time to get Walker or Cobb.
For Robert batting leadoff: If you don't think he should, I will probably sell him and save up for Larry Walker or Ty Cobb.@Bob_Loblaw1984 said in Well, that was ......AWFUL:

2B BiggioPersonally, I agree that my lineup is a little righty heavy. I would rather not use a CAP, as I like to use real players.
Quesiton: Walker or Cobb?
If I sell Robert and Ian Anderson that I just bought, that will get me to 133K. I will then need 40K to get to Cobb.
For outfield: I hit well with TN Yordan Alvarez. Could he be a starter? -
Anybody have thoughts?
-
OR I could get 99 Maddux. Or 99 Scherzer. With the stubs I have

know you're stub conscious at the moment so I'd say Cobb is the move for your team & he hits bombs don't worry about the drop off of power between him and Walker. I would definitely not start Yordan under any condition, you already know why...he will cost you in the OF.
I'd also argue that the PS D'Arnaud coupled with adding Cobb will provide the cheapest and more impactful upgrade to your team. Don't get too caught up on hitting handedness especially when guys like D'Arnaud have reverse splits..

thanks!
I will get Cobb, and then d'Arnaud.
Will that change the lineup recommendations from above? -
@Jeviduty
I have the TN d'Arnaud. Is that good, or do I get the PS? -

@Jeviduty
I have the TN d'Arnaud. Is that good, or do I get the PS?The PS for sure, the 125/125 against righties is the main takeaway especially out of the C position & he won't have 6 speed like Grandal LOL
