Best line-up in MLB


Recommended Posts

The TEXAS RANGERS!!!  There is speed thorughout the line-up, except for Moreland and Torrealba, and the only lack of power is in Andrus and Borbon.  Who wants to face Nelson Cruz in the 6 hole?  Don't forget, Napoli and Murphy can be added to the line-up on any given day.  I don't think there is another line-up in the majors that can compare.  Not even the mighty yankees.
 
1. I. Kinsler (2B)
2. E. Andrus (SS) 
3. J. Hamilton (LF)
4. A. Beltre (3B)
5. M. Young (DH) 
6. N. Cruz (RF) 
7. M. Moreland (1B) 
8. Y. Torrealba (C) 
9. J. Borbon (CF)

Here's what the RANGERS line-up managed to do in the opening series:


The Rangers beat up the Red Sox behind 20 extra base hits, including 11 home runs. The 11 long balls were a record for the first three games of the season for Texas. And Ian Kinsler and Nelson Cruz made history, becoming the first pair of teammates in Major League history to homer in each of their club's first three games of the season.

Again, who wants to face Nelson Cruz in the 6 hole?  Cruz hit the RANGERS 4th HR of the day into the upper deck of the homerun porch.

I think this is the best line-up (or rotation that can handle any line-up) in the MLB...if they stay healthy!

Roy Halladay
Cliff Lee
Roy Oswalt
Cole Hamels

IMO that's probably the best 4-starter rotation in the history of baseball.  Halladay and Lee would both be the ace on any other team in the league, and Hamels and Oswalt would be the ace on at least half of the teams in the league.

    • Tim Erickson from Orangefield….
    • Lucky for Orangefield there’s only 3 games max to play.    Someone said they had a pitcher or 2 throw 90’s but I don’t know that for a fact.  Rumors.   it appears that Orangefield will see some faster pitchers this round. Generally speaking I haven’t been too impressed with Orangefield opponents pitching. Only pitcher so far that was fast (92 mph) was vs Woodville in first game & Orangefield got several runs off of him.    Looking for a good series with no injuries for both teams. 
    • Apologies if this is a stupid question, but why would they just not renew his contract for the 24/25 school year if he had multiple write-ups? I know teachers and paraprofessionals don't get their contract renewed if their performance is bad enough - are coaches' contract situations different?

    • It’s very difficult to fire an educator.  It’s not difficult to reassign them and put them in a situation where they’re likely to leave on their own.  I’m not sure of the legality of exposing an employee’s work records, but it seems likely it’s not allowed if nothing criminal took place.
