For some reason TPSL has not been kind to any of the young teams i put together so here goes nothing.
First of all, did Pedoria lose talent by accident?
The following lineup does not include the pending Chris Young deal.
Lineup
2B Dustin Pedroia (10-9-5-8-7): Had .430 OBP last season. Can he get anywhere near that with the talent hit.
SS Carlos Triunfel (7-10-5-3-6): Its time unleash the beast this season.
3B Matt Tuiasosopo (9-7-10-6-5): Hopefully can build on last season
RF Matt Holliday (9-9-10-6-6): MVP Type Season possible?
LF Vladmir Balentien (7-8-10-5-5): There's more power where that came from
DH Joey Votto (7-7-10-8-4): Your only job is to hit.
CA Jeff Clement (8-6-9-5-4): Could platoon with Rob Johnson.
1B Garrett Jones (8-7-8-6-7): Just holding down the fort for now.
CF Adam Jones (6-7-9-5-5): Will he fill out? so i can have potentially 5 guys with 10 power in the lineup?
Bench:
CA Rob Johnson (7-8-4-5-7): Just go ahead and try to run on his arm
IF Brendan Harris (8-8-6-5-6): Will see lots of time at 2B, SS, 3B, maybe CF, and DH
OF Josh Kroger (7-6-6-4-4): They paid 5.45 Mill for the last 4th OF.
Rotation
RH Chris Young (9-7-8): Will be the Ace of the Rotation for now.
LH Jeff Francis (8-9-9): Let last year be a fluke
RH Gil Meche (9-7-8): Earn that contract extension son.
LH Rich Hill (9-7-9): Return to Cy Young Form PLEASE
RH Clay Buchholz (10-6-8): Just be respectable
Bullpen
Cla Meredith (7-9-6)
Roland Kenney (7-8-8)
Austin Bibens-Dirkx (9-7-8)
J. Brent Cox (10-7-6)
Peter Moylan (8-7-8)
David Purcey (10-5-7)
Emiliano Fruto (8-8-7)
Brandon League (10-8-7)
Bullpen will strike out a lot of people but its control might be an issue. League should rebound from last year. Kenney and Meredith will be new additions to the bullpen. Purcey goes to the bullpen for now to add his stuff there.
Comments Welcome.
