a lot of small ball parks in this league, mostly a variety of forbes.

got mostly every player i wanted. so i would clearly like the way this team looks.

thinking of batting them as such:

bush
suzuki
anson
lajoie
mays
heilmann
weaver
o'rourke w/ kress as his back up incase of inj
thomas

I personally like the expensive Addie Joss better than Brown as a #2.

I never had much success with Bush, but others obviously have

I have used Ira Thomas a lot recently in small ball siutaions and have been pleasantly surprised. He seems to drive in more runs than you'd expect at the bottom of the order.

It may not matter as much in ATG as it does in the 200X games, but you are a very RH hitting team.

In non-ATG leagues, a cheap hard RH can really shut down teams like yours.

I have had luck with Ed Farmer vs. a loaded RH hitting team in ATG.
