Anti-Fantasy League: What does your Batting Order and Pitching Rotation look like?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Now that we are 9+ rounds in, I figured it'd be a good time to start the roster construction for each team. We will obviously build the bench and auxiliary pitching spots later, but everyone should have a good idea as to what their lineup and starting rotation should look like.

 

Please only post one time in this thread. As you add to your lineup and rotation, edit the post.

 

All discussion should be kept to the other thread.

Point of clarification: Pablo Sandoval has yet to play catcher in the major leagues. Is it really apropos to pencil him in at that position under the circumstances? Wouldn't it be like me sticking Billy Butler in left field?

My first line up. I'm sure many changes to follow:D

 

CF Ellsbury

SS Andrus

DH Hamilton

LF Braun

1B Votto

3B Encarnacion

C Shoppach

2B Barmes

RF Gonzalez

 

 

I hope Beckham will be able to be the starting 3B eventually, but I'm going with Encarnacion for the time being. I think my line up is balanced pretty good. Andrus in the #2 spot I know is a stretch, but If Barmes pans out he could work there nicely.

 

 

SP Rotation

 

1. Josh Johnson

2. Aaron Harang

3. Andrew Miller

4. Luke Hochevar

5. Jake Westbrook

 

 

Johnson Has ace potential, and not that far off. Harang is a nice veteran guy with quality stuff. Andrew Miller is a power LHP that has great upside. But has yet to consistently pitch at that level. We've seen the flashes though. Hochevar is another high upside guy(like a lot of my pitchers). Westbrook is injured now, but this is a 5 year deal. So if he comes back from TJ surgery and pitches like he can, he's a great option for my #5. I Think I have a lot of potential with my prospects. But they are prospects. But if one or more comes through, my rotation should be even more solid. I don't think of my staff as elite. But I feel it would be a very capable staff with a few high upside/flameout candidates.
