Femur

Close game I have a very slight lean to femurs team.Femur by a hair

bones

 

[Mebert]

Milk

I think Milks lineup works much better with Berkman or Nap in the two hole, but overall he just has a few more great players than Femur IMO. Femur has a great rotation, but Milk is solid there and has more offense.
Milk in a squeaker

 

[femurov]

I vote for me.

 

[Nosferatu]

Not sure I like the way Milk put his lineup together but I do think he has a slightly better team just about everywhere.

I kind of agree, but i really wanted the lefty righty balance... and i think this was the best way i could get that...

But why berkman over Mize... the reason i put mize there over Berkman is simply because of the strike outs(even if compared to his era)

milk wins because he is milktastic

Nap at 2 and Berk at 6 probably best, Mize plays well 5 hole IMO. Berkman is nice in two hole as a switch hitter, high contact with some pop IMO. Switch works well there if not L

Gotta give them both credit.Both teams are pretty bold

not bold... I didn't get the top of the order guys i wanted so i was forced into creating the best lineup structure i could...

Nos used the bold font tho.Now I'm confused

 

[Pack 500]

Got Milk? My vote does

On second thought, i do think i have it the best way possible... Don't forget, if i had Nap as my 2, then i would have 3 Righties in a row(as Bert campaneris is also a righty)... Not a fan of that... I agree that Nap is the best #2 i have, but i don't think using Mize there is a bad move... Plus, Nap never walked more than 60 times in his career, so he is not an ideal #2 either...

 

[Shanemansj13]

Both these are top 3 teams imo.

I got Milk in a close one

 

[Nosferatu]

Congrats Spillage!
