Playing in $80mill, no dh league. Homepark= West Side Park.

I've been playing around w/my lineup to see what would be most effective in scoring runs. W Wilson leading off is obvious. I've been shuffling Fernandez between the 2 & 8 slot. The brackets below are the lineup slots I have tried for those players. Anyone ever have Ripper Collins? It's early in our season, but he seems to go 0-4 a lot. Any ideas for the following lineup:

C S YEAGER/T STEINBACH (7/8}
1B R COLLINS (3/4/5)
2B R SCHOEDIENST (2 or 6)
SS T FERNANDEZ (2 or 8}
3B K BOYER (2 or 6)
LF M OTT (3/4/5)
CF W WILSON (1)
RF H AARON (3/4/5)

Just 1 man's opinion, but I don't think your team is well suited for your park. When it's "obvious" that Willie Wilson is your leadoff choice, it also is pretty obvious that OBP is going to be a problem.
You can't blow up your team at this point, but these roster changes would have made more sense to me:
Collins (Chance)
Boyer (Steinfeldt)
Fernandez (Wagner or Ozzie)
I'd mull over dropping Wilson for Leibold & moving Ott to CF, assuming you can't make a trade for more OBP.
I like your SP.
