I have a lot of good young SS prospects that are either a year or so away from the ML or they just got there. So it's looking like my ML lineup could include up to about 5-6 guys that can play SS. My question is with this flexibility, in what order would you rank the importance of position. Obviously SS is #1 so I'll put the best defensive one there. But, what about the other ones. I know its probably CF, but wouldn't you put the better defender at 2B instead of CF since 2B gets a lot more opportunities? And if a guy has a 90+ arm at 2B is it a waste? And where does a 3B fit into it all?

Right now I'm thinking:

1. SS
2. 2B
3. CF
4. 3B
5. LF

I'd go.. strongest ARM guys at SS and 3B.. Best range with weaker glove at CF, Best Range/Glove at 2B... Best overall DEF at SS.

Can all of these guys hit in the BL's?

Yeah they should all be great ML hitters except the best defensive SS will be a little below average

Sounds like a stacked lineup.

This guy is currently my starting SS but I'm starting to sit him against LHP especially when I get more depth.

This guy I had at 3B last year but I'm thinking about putting him at 2B but I don't want to waste his arm.

This guy I'm planning on being my starting SS because I project him to be the best defensive but he will probably be my #8 hitter.

This guy I stuck in RF because his glove still has a ways to go before he's in the IF.

Same as the guy before, his glove is stil a year or so away from IF duty.

This guy is not a SS because of his range but he seems to be perfect for 3B.

This guy I have in CF for now. He probably will be the odd man out when all prospects are up.

Sorry I don't know how to post better links like the smarter people out there

If they are all legit SS, as follows in order:

SS-best overall
2B-best glove
CF-best range
3B-best AS
LF-best range
