Experiment anyone?

Give me your best possible lineup, using hitters outside the top 50 (consensus or your own rankings). Arms not included. Base it on a points league, where strikeouts are minus 1, walks are a half a point, then the basics for everything else. Find me the next Donaldson, Segura, Pence...

C - McCann
1B - Trumbo
2B - A. Hill
3B - Alvarez
SS - E. Cabrera
MI - Lowrie
CI - Belt
OF - Marte
OF - Myers
OF - Werth
OF - B. Hamilton

All of these guys are outside the top 50 in ADP on couch managers and all of them look like good values to me.

 

[broncosmitty]

C -LuCroy (MCCann should kill it in NY)
1B -Anthony Rizzo(he's legit, the cubs aren't)
2B -Brian Dozier(keep an eye out for this guy)
3B - Nick Castellanos(homer pick)
SS -Asdrubal Cabrera(egh... Or hope for Castro to bounce back)
MI -Hechavarria(oh hell yeah)
CI -Kyle Seager(not sure of the Ms current lineup after overpaying in FA)
OF - Alex Gordon(no more leadoff for good or bad)
OF - Allen Craig(he's eligible, not sure where he'll be at)
OF - Domonic Brown(best Dom since DiMaggio)
OF - Austin Jackson(no idea where he's at in the order)


All guys I'd gladly take after 50 picks are off the board.

good... keep 'em coming

C -McAnn-no idea why he's outside the top 50 given the lack of great options at the position
1B -Rizzo- agreed with the previous, the guy is for real, Cubs are not
2B -Gyorko-2nd most HR's at the position last year, hard to argue with
3B - Lawrie/Machado-sue me, I can't make the call
SS -A. Cabrera-Andrus is listed at 51 on the rankings I'm currently leaning towards, but that's a cop out
MI -Profar-There may be more proven mediocre options, but I'd prefer to take a small risk he's better
CI -Lawrie/Machado-there, happy now?
OF - Cespedes
OF -Dom. Brown
OF -B. Hamilton-Josh Hamilton is like #158..really? he wasn't THAT bad last year...was he?

Hard to argue with Tlance's list. Pretty much spot-on, the only one I outright don't like is Alvarez.
