Obviously the positions will switch around based on who makes the team and who's in the lineup.  

[Brownie19]

Yeah - I think something like that makes sense.

[Spanky99]

Roden.

C- Kirk
1B - Kirk
2B - Kirk
3B - Kirk
SS - Kirk

I'd probably do similar. Maybe keep Vlad-Taters-Bo at 2-3-4 against both lefties and righties. Springer can bat leadoff against lefties. 

But Springer better get off to a hot start! Barger, Roden and plenty of other options are nipping at his heels

Wagner's plays at 3B today changed a lot.

At times I was wondering if Barger or even Vlad should get some games at 3B but there's no way they could make plays like Wagner did. Especially on that ball he had to charge. 

I'm obviously not completely sold but he should definitely get a crack at it and along with Clement they should have it covered until proven otherwise. 

[jaysblue]

Would have Bo - Vladdy and Santander penciled into the No. 2-3-4 spots. The rest of the lineup is in the air. Could see some guys moving up/down based on performance. 

For leadoff, okay with Wagner against RHP and Springer against LHP. 

Like Term said, Springer better hit early on. If he isn't being productive, gotta try Roden or Barger.

This looks pretty good. As long as Wagner can play adequate defence at 3B he should start there vs RHP. 
 

That Lineup actually seems pretty good taking advantage of platoons and when ahead in the game you can sub Ernie in for defence.
