Crowded at the Top - 2005 Game

[Palmtana]

I looked back through a number of old threads for help with my lineups and seem to have a number of leadoff and #2 hitters: Kendall, Berkman, Walker, Thomas, Mora, Castillo (vs. LHP) were all mentioned as 1 or 2 hole batters. Is there a better way to maximize their talents? Thanks for any suggestions.

Here is what I have right now:

Lineup vs. LHP
1. Castillo, Luis (S) 2B
2. Walker, Larry (L) RF
3. Mora, Melvin (R) 3B
4. Berkman, Lance (S) LF
5. Overbay, Lyle (L) 1B
6. Merloni, Lou (R) DH
7. Kendall, Jason (R) C
8. Sanchez, Rey (R) SS
9. Bocachica, Hiram (R) CF

Lineup vs. RHP
1. Kendall, Jason (R) C
2. Walker, Larry (L) RF
3. Mora, Melvin (R) 3B
4. Berkman, Lance (S) LF
5. Thomas, Frank (R) DH
6. Overbay, Lyle (L) 1B
7. Taguchi, So (R) CF
8. Sanchez, Rey (R) SS
9. Castillo, Luis (S) 2B

How about:
Vs rhp's
Mora
Kendall
Berkman
Walker
Thomas
Overbay
Taguchi
Sanchez
Castillo(2nd leadoff type)
You need to trade in Taguchi(too expensive to platoon-about $4.00, right?) & Sanchez, who stinks.
Vs lhp's
Walker
Berkman
Bocachica
Mora
Overbay
Merloni
Castillo
Sanchez
Kendall
