Roberts
Markakis
Lee
Scott
Reynolds
Jones
Pie/Reimold
Wieters
Hardy

That's how I'd do the lineup at this point. I wouldn't mind if they signed Vlad or Manny to DH though and put Scott in LF and then put Pie on the bench and Reimold in AAA but I doubt it will happen.

How would you guys make the lineup?

hmm interesting.

heres mine:



Roberts
Jones
Markakis
Lee
Reynolds
Scott
Wieters
Hardy
Pie/Reimold

I switch Markakis and Jones for lefty/righty matchups.
IMO lee/reynolds/scott are interchangable and it doesnt honestly matter. Whoever hotter should bat 4th IMO
I dont believe in L/R/L/R mattering that much so that kind of shows in my lineup

Why would you put Jones 2nd instead of Markakis?

Srs?

Nick Markakis is best suited to be a #2 hitter. Look at what he does, it is a perfect fit for him. Jones can't draw a walk to save his life.

I said i would flip them back and forth. I like Jones in the second hole (don't love it). As long as he has some protection i expect his OBP to be around .340-.350 . I think Nick will produce better in the 3 hole now with Lee/Reynolds behind him.
Either way we do not have a legit 3 hitter, which sucks because Nick is the perfect 2 hitter.



I wouldnt even mind putting reimold/pie in the 2 hole.

Lee is a legit #3 lol.

i hope lol. I will agree with you once i see his performance as a legit #3 on the field.

He wasn't that good last year but he had a torn ligament in his thumb. Hopefully if healed he bounces back to the form that he displayed throughout his career.

Lee and Reynolds both go back to 09 form. God mode.
