You make valid points......
particularly when considering the nature of postseason play and the premium placed on scoring runs. If you insert Brown at leadoff and in left, move Ritter to right and then you have Overaitis and Slaw available for DP and PH duty along with Milius. I think the numbers would say Peck generates far more runs than her defense costs. All just an opinion and it will be interesting to see what the guy that gets paid to make those decisions decides. He has more weapons at his disposal now than in his earlier years. Girls just have to reset as it is a new season, everybody is 0-0 and the goal is to lose no more than one in any single weekend series.

Can't Monte Carlo simulations be used to optimize lineup?

I would like to see Brown inserted back at leadoff. She puts pressure

The basic math (runs produced vs. runs cost) suggests that you can.

You might be onto something. Unlikely to shift 3 players post-season though**

I doubt the numbers are in favor of sitting Peck.**
