Ritz. Feel lineups are both good but my bench and bullpen are a lot better. Also feel I got 3 better SP.

 

[Shanemansj13]

I got Ritz in a close one. 500 has the better lineup but I got Ritz for pitching

this one surprised me... I know without explanations it looked like I was voting 500 because I just cant pick ritz... But I really don't think this one is close... Ritz's rotation is not good enough to be the reason for it to win... 500's offense is significantly better than Ritz's offense...

Plus, Foxx and Greenberg in the middle of that lineup, both Righties facing a predominantly LEFTY rotation?? Yea right!!! Even if Smoky is a righty and was posted as a lefty...
