Event rosters
-
Hey, everyone. Long time Show player, first time full season DD player (I started after the free October PSN Plus last year since I didn't have the money to buy games at the time). TLDR; How are you filling out your roster for the current event?
I've been a Franchise regular since the days of MVP baseball, but finally decided to make the dive into DD last year. I started with a lot of conquest and moments grinding because obviously I was WAY behind the 8 ball with stubs and cards. I never really got into events because I would go against God squads while I was stuck with silvers to low level diamonds, so I mostly stuck to BR and low level ranked season. Now I'm fully diving in and I'm loving events. I'm 12-4 so far, but I've seen a lot of different rosters. Some people have full gold/diamond bullpens, some people have 4 bench guys for 4 positions to play matchups at any position with a PH for the pitcher to spare and take discount pitching staff, some people have 5 diamond starters, etc.
The lineup I've been using is...
SP: 2 diamond, 1 gold, 1 silver, and the Red Sox common knuckleballer
RP: 2 diamond, 2 gold, 1 silver, and 2 glitchy bronze guys, with 4 righties and 3 lefties
I use all diamonds in my lineup except for gold Chipper who is hitting almost .450 for me, and I stick him at short.
My bench is Yordon, Sano, Joc, Chirinos, and Adam Engle (I think?) for his 95 speed in tight spots.Is my lineup good? Is there a more optimal way to set up while staying at the 88 OVR threshold? Thanks for the help, especially if you've decided to read all of this thread.

I mean, it seems decent enough, if they play well for you, might as well stick with what works.
I personally just go all common rotation, and only use my bullpen. Bullpen arms only need one event game off to regain full energy, so I didn't see the need for a starter and it helped get my overall down.
