I'm not even going to try and argue this with math, because I will lose - these are basic assumptions of mine (based off of LHP/RHP splits and a bit of UZR mixed in). Really just an exercise in fun. What are your projected lineups for the upcoming season? Would be fun to see how far off we are in a couple of months.
Here's mine:
Vs LHP
Rafael Furcal (SS)
Matt Kemp (CF)
Marcus Thames (LF)
Juan Uribe (2B)
Casey Blake (3B)
James Loney (1B)
Rod Barajas (C)
Pitcher
Andre Ethier (RF)
Vs RHP
Rafael Furcal (SS)
Jamey Carroll (2B)
Andre Ethier (RF)

Pitcher
Projected Rotation
