Gladly appreciated, Thank You Guys......

looks like you either just make a big trade to get most of these guys, or hit the free agent pile or both. problem is you have no true cleanup guy, and a ton of tablesetters. here's what I would do, for what it's worth....

1. gehringer
2. devore
3. jackson
4. j .robinson
5. snodgrass
6. domaggio
7. schalke
8. bowa
9. merkle

you could flip jackie and shoeless joe so you don't have so many consecutive lh batters, or dimmagio and devore. lots of people like dom up top, im not one of them, but if you're getting high obp out of him, get him up there. snodgrass is your best #5 with all that clutch hitting, the bottom doesn't matter a whole lot, i put merkle 9th to give you an extra leadoff./speed type as you flip the lineup.

merkle's got lots of clutch too, move him to 7th, bowa 9th.
