What is does your lineup look like?

October 11th
Im finding it hard to stick with one lineup with all of the top tier guys. Here is what I have as of right now.Jimmy SS Switch
Griffey CF Left
Shef RF Right
Ruth 1b Left
Foxx 3b Right
Cutch LF Right
Hank 2b Right
Mauer C LeftThat is with Honus, Albert and Brett on the bench. NOt sure Im sold on Shef or Mauer yet but I like the balance both bring. Not sure how Im suposed to get everyone in the lineup. It also difficult because we have so many guys with position flexibility but I guess that is a good problem to have.

Swanson SS
Edmonds 1st
Henderson LF
Finley CF
Durham 2nd
Jones 3rd

- Jimmy - SS
- Griffey - CF
- Cutch - LF
- Babe - 1B
- Vlad - RF
- Seager - 3B
- Mookie - 2B
- Mauer - C
Bench - Foxx, Pujols, Brett, Shawn Green, Escobar
I'm really wanting both Foxx and Mauer in the lineup together but can't decide if I want to replace Seager with Foxx or move Babe to the OF and take out Cutch. I do know I will always have either Escobar or Honus on the bench for the position flexibility.

Rn I’m going
Ricky CF Right
Ozzie SS Switch
Jackie 2B Right
Brett 1B Left
McCutchen RF Right
Mauer C Left
B. Robinson 3B Right
Damon LF Left -
I'm pretty much doing theme teams at this point tbh. There's enough top guys at each position you really can't go wrong

How about Seager to 2nd and Mookie to the bench? I like Foxx and Mauer starting so if I pinch hit or run someone for Mauer Im not wasting two bench positions. Escobar is great and his power is amazing but I prefer Honus and Jackie because of the speed. Also, how do you like Vlad? I really liked his bat last year but I cant justify buying him at his current price with all the RFs on my roster.

I agree with @the_dragon1912 -- theme teams are the way to go at this point (or squads designed to complete program PXP missions). But my primary non-theme team at this point is probably going to be:
1.) Rickey Henderson LF (R)
2.) Rod Carew 2B (L)
3.) Jimmie Foxx 1B (R)
4.) Griffey Jr CF (L)
5.) Al Kaline RF (R)
6.) George Brett 3B (L)
7.) Pudge Rodriguez C (R)
8.) Oneil Cruz SS (L)Bench: Riley Greene (L), Corbin Carroll (L), Jackie Robinson (R), Frank Thomas (R), Honus Wagner (R)
But I can see myself rotating in Ruth, Luis Gonzalez, Finley, Edmonds, Pujols, Aaron, Brooks Robinson, Mauer, and RotY Bellinger (that card rips). And if Matt Olson gets a juiced Postseason card, I may put him at 1B and move Foxx behind the plate.
EDIT: Oh, and I still have barely even touched the Sept POTM program, but MA Eloy is going to find a way onto the team. I always play well with Eloy's cards.

Nothing to see here. Move along.

I find it quite the opposite. Almost everyone should have a really good lineup by now, vs earlier in the year.

If everyone has, or easily can attain, an all-99 team, I find it hard for someone to think they are flexing their lineup.
With so many 99s and other great cards that play above their rating, it is quite normal to be curious about what lineups other people are rolling with.
This diversity of lineup is what the community wanted over the years. I don't think anyone really wants to go back to 18 when everyone was running with same lineups full of Immortals and nothing else!

Im not flexing at all. The only guy I have that perhaps many people dont have is Jimmy, maybe Cutch if you totally skipped collections. Even then you could make the arguement that their are better guys at both of those positions. Everyone else on my came from grinding promos. I dont play h2h so I dont have any Ranked or BR reward guys. Im just interested to see who people are playing, where they are playing them and how they order their lineup.
Would you care to provide your lineup or who you like to use in your lineup?

Thank you. That is why I made the post. Promos have been fire this year and we have gotten a huge variety of cards. You can easily stick to a team of 99s that you have obtained for free. To me a big part of this game is lineup and roster construction. There is no wrong or right way but Im always curious. That is why I wanted to see what everyone is rolling with. And if people have questions or input I would love some discussion.

Ok, I can understand where the OP is coming from. I'll retract my statement.

About 50 points away from getting POTM Bo so he will be at short tonight(very said to see Marte go)
I have my first pack from the new monthly program but haven’t opened it yet. Will probably take Lindor and maybe play him OOP at 2nd and sell BR reward Seager(I’m trying to get Rollins and 500k stubs will help)
Edit: also Sheff is in right and mookie is in left, I was just rearranging some positions on the app and forgot to put Sheff and Mookie back in their correct spots
