I'm still fairly new to SLB and have some questions about defense:
If I put my best OF in CF, should I put my 2nd best in RF or LF? IRL MLB, the RF is usually better than the LF.... And in higher cap SLB leagues, you usually see many LH hitters.. So I tend to think the RF should be the better fielder, but I am not sure....
And, I'm wondering if I can use Ted Williams at 1B without hurting my defense too much...
I already drafted a team with '23 Ruth, '11 Cobb, '94 H Duffy, '87 Tip O'neal, and '41 Williams. $255M league
I don't have a 1B on the squad but Ruth has a good rating at 1B as a secondary position... However, he is also my best OF and Tip O'Neal is rated D/B- and has a fielding% of .895... I was thinking my best defensive lineup may actually be Williams at 1B and Ruth in the OF with O'Neal at DH... Williams is a D+/C- OF, but his RL fielding% is pretty good at .966.... The letter grades and RRF would indicate that O'Neal should play in the OF and Williams DH, but the errors/fielding% suggest the opposite (Considering Ruth plays 1B and not Williams)
So- I guess I'm asking which one should play the OF, which one should play 1B and which one should DH.... and in general, should I put my better OF in RF or LF.....
Thanks for any incite
