I am pretty much set as far as the team goes, but here is the link anyway. All suggestions considered of course. I can win in pitching parks and at Dunn, but put me in a hitter haven, and I am lost.

Lineup VS L

Speaker
J. Clark
Yaz
Cravath
Yogi
Honus
E. Collins
Bando

Lineup VS R
Same as left, except Bando bumps ahead of Honus and Collins 6 thru 9

Are they good to go, or should Honus be at the top with Speaker 2 and everybody moved down??

I presume no DH since you only list 8 hitters. Hmmm, don't care for your backup for SS so you might want to consider hitting Honus 8th to help cut down his chance of getting injured by being walked to get to the pitcher.

assmeritan, took your advice, and dropped Honus to 8th, steal more. Also, somebody dropped Ken Boyer, so grabbed him instead of Bando, and then had money to drop Groat, and pick up Bowa not only to back up Honus, but for a defensive replacement as well.

Also, Bauer is my def, replacement in RF, so, outside of 1b, my defense in the late innings is going to be pretty awesome, which, should help my cheap BP

Is Salmon your def at 1st? Usually one of the lower price 1st basemen with a glove is on FA market. I know you are counting on Bauer for the late inning pop just hope he is worth it. I see Honus is all ready down. :(

Batting Honus Wagner 8th is, in my opinion, a very, very bad decision.

in a hitter's park, i would have stuck w/ Bando instead of Boyer but Boyer will do better there than elsewhere. :? Don't often see Speaker on a Fenway team. He's usually on a small ball, Griffith or Forbes squad. Gavvy and Yaz will be good bats there.

Browseing the old and had to see how Boyer did Only player same as my only ring team and #'s very close also at Fenway
