I love altuve... but don't like him as a leadoff as he does not walk enough... 500 has the clear better 3-4 hitters but I think MIlk has a better and deeper lineup...

Milk's rotation is better, and better bullpen...

I guess I will go milk here, for reasons that I don't know if I even have to share...

 

[UK Cowboy]

500 very close

 

[Shanemansj13]

Milk. The lineups are very close and even IMO. The pitching favored Milk in a close one.

 

[Mebert]

Milk

I like ice cold Milk, can't stand it when it's warm... Anyway, I like the pitching and BP for Milk... I'm back and forth on the lineup but lean to 500, bench slight lean Milk... Got ice cold Milk in 7

I'm a little confused by this result quite honestly. If Milk's pitching is better and I'm not sure that it is it's only marginal and my lineup is clearly stronger. I have me

Why do you think your lineup is clearly better... I strongly disagree... In fact I think my lineup is better...

Voting done congrats to Milk on first to reach 6 votes.

When I first looked at these teams before seeing the score I thought well 500 prolly won this one already, I gotsta say i'm pretty surprised by the result.
