Through 2023.
Largely, this is a focus on career regular season value, due to time considerations. I'm doing this with the idea of a possible tournament, so I'm not just putting together the best 26 players, I'm trying to construct a roster. Every spot has a backup, 16 position players/10 pitchers. Making platoon considerations, each team has 2 dedicated closers, each bullpen has a lefty.
Lineup v RH
C J.Kendall
1B W.Stargell (L)
2B B.Mazeroski
SS A.Vaughan (L)
3B H.Wagner
LF B.Bonds (L)
CF M.Carey (S)
RF R.Clemente
DH P.Waner (L)
Lineup v LH
C J.Kendall
1B W.Stargell (L)
2B B.Mazeroski
SS H.Wagner
3B P.Traynor
LF B.Bonds (L)
CF A.McCutchen
RF R.Clemente
DH R.Kiner
Bench
C M.Sanguillen
2B/1B G.Grantham (L)
3B T.Leach
LF F.Clarke (L)
Parker and Van Slyke both miss out here; Mazeroski's glove is probably enough to keep him in the lineup against RH but Grantham is tempting and likely to get some run if a bat is needed. Sanguillen/Kendall and Leach/Traynor are essentially coin flips.
