1. Austin Nola(BB/K ration is killer, he works the pitcher)


we need speed at the top Nola doesn't have it.

quote:

2. Arby Fields(not enough ABs to put at leadoff)


good spot

quote:

3. Ralph Rhymes(no doubt best hitter on team)


good spot

quote:

4. Jacoby Jones(just because he is faster than Katz)


he isn't a clean up hitter I like him at lead off cause as you said he is fast

quote:

5. Mason Katz


2nd best hitter only spot that works for him is 4th (for power) or 3rd to get on for rhymes

quote:

6. Ty Ross


not a bad spot

quote:

7. Grant Dozar(RH pitcher), Jordy Snickeris(LH pitcher)


can snickeris play first?

quote:

8. Jared Foster(worst hitter in lineup, great defensive OF) only until Alex Edward is healthy


so he should be 9th to help average

quote:

9. Tyler Hanover(#9 batter is a 2nd leadoff)


not true

I would say

1. Fields (he is hitting well and is fast) (CF)
2. Jones (his speed is only why I put him here) (2B)
3. Rhymes (usually you put your hottest batter in this spot) (DH)
4. Katz (our best power hitter) (RF)
5. Nola (raps up the heart of the order nicely) (SS)
6. Hanover (3B)
7. Ty Ross (C)
8. Dozar or Moore (1st)
9. Foster (worst hitter, but 9 hole usually gets the best pitches to hit) (LF)

I trust CPM anyway so I'm sure his lineup will be killer.

Yeah but to use his speed he needs to get on base!!! So you are telling me Nola is an SEC middle infielder but he doesn't have enough speed to lead off?? Jones is hitting .260 on the year with only like 4BBs(HBP)/27Ks, not a leadoff even though he is fast that's why I put him at the 4 spot because when he hits the ball he hits it hard(lot of extra basehits). I almost put Jones at the 2 spot and put Arby Fields further down but I would give Arby a shot there first.
