It's a decent small ball OF. But definitely put Snodgrass in CF. His arm's better than Miller's (-3 vs. 0) and CF gets more throws than LF/RF.
Is Sam Rice available? I'd recommend him for RF over Miller, moving Muesel to LF.

We can help alot more if you post a link
1) go to your league stats page
2) click on your team
3) copy the URL (in the address bar)
4) paste here
We can tell alot more by knowing the entire make up of your team.... :wink: :)

I don't play small-ball much, but in that park, Muesel has a great rep on the boards.
Don't know about Miller.
A lot depends on the rest of the team, and the way the lineup will stack up.
If your top 3 in the lineup are Miller/Snod/Muesel, a good power guy with natural HRs will be important.
You may consider Snod's arm in CF, and a LF easier to find than CF. May need more OBP at the top, others can advise as to Miller working there or not. Some will tell you never to go with anything but a 1 in CF.
Good luck.

"Some will tell you never to go with anything but a 1 in CF"...except for Mantle.
Include me in that "some". :)

Meusel is key, but for RF, unless you have Sam Rice. I usually go for Doby or Geronimo as CF, rather than Snodgrass because they are "1"s and they have the killer -4 and -5 respectively. Doby gives you serious HR threat (usually 30-40) but has never hit above .280 for me. Geronimo always bats 8th for me and is there purely for the defense. Miller is good, its just that there are others who are better. Rice or Cuyler, when you can get them. I also agree that you need one serious HR threat on your team.
Just my 2 cents worth.

Include me with O.T. Although I'd have to add Hack on certain teams. If you are forced to use a 2 or worse, get Lemon and platoon. Then you can also put him in for a def sub. I had a combo of Dykstra and Lemon get a ring.
