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

Then the only question is how much to bias recent results vs. entire season. Diamond sports were the first to lean heavily on analytics, and I imagine that's true even at the college level.

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

You make valid points......

Nope, can't take Slaw or Peck out of the lineup.**

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

Nah..Peck had 23% of our total hits in ACCT

Interesting thought. Might make sense.**

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

Yeah, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it

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