this is for a Y56 lineup. WHo would you bat in the 2 spot? I though maybe Yount but those Gba. Matthews would be the ideal but I think that in Y56 the clean-up guy should be a LH hitter. Any thoughts? Valentine has a decent OBP vs. RH but with all the lefties i'll be facing, should he be in a more run-producing spot to kill the lefty relievers, say 5th? Thanks for any ideas! JB
