CPM is in the college baseball HOF & has won the SEC, SEC Tourney, and a NC. I put a lot more faith in his knowledge re the batting lineup than a fan, sorry.


Dusty Baker has a ton of qualifications, too. He spent at least three seasons playing Corey Patterson and Juan Pierre at leadoff because they are fast and play center. Baseball is one of those sports where the understanding has increased recently and old people sometimes are misguided in what they do. So leave the appeal to referential authority at the door. Playing Raph in left and katz anywhere in the outfield makes the defense terrible. The other poster was spot on about maximizing ABs.

yeah, up until you young guys came along with all that technology we determined batting order by birthdays. Maximizing at bats, eh? What'll they think of next?
