I am using qualified hitters so there is no worries about putting in some guy who was horrible and is now in the minors.
C: Mike Zunino 1B: Logan Morrison 2B: Omar Infante 3B: Martin Prado SS: Starlin Castro LF: Angel Pagan CF: Juan Lagares RF: Billy Hamilton DH: Chris Owings
These are based off of OPS btw. |

Cheesey.......
OPS is literally slugging + OBP. |

WAIT REALLY ?
yeah no !@#$ buddy, that's why you shouldn't use it
OBP is far more relevant than slugging and combining them is combining two different elements of hitting, which is very dumb

yeah so what? OBP is FAR more relevant, in fact, it's statically proven to be almost twice as valuable

"it's statically proven to be almost twice as valuable"
Houston: 18th in OBP/4th in Slugging
Look where they are in the standings. |

>Look where they are in the standings.
maybe because of their 3rd best ERA in the AL? or their spectacular defense?
to say OBP isn't twice as valuable as slugging is ridiculous and you should feel dumb for saying otherwise

3rd in MLB in runs scored helps.
I put in OPS because guys like Salvador Perez. Horrible OBP but can still hurt you with a long ball.
This team has no hitting and no power in it. |

Worst hitting team on terms of getting on base.
C: Mike Zunino 1B: Ryan Howard 2B: Omar Infante 3B: Aramis Ramirez SS: Ian Desmond LF: Kevin Kiermaier CF: Juan Lagares RF: Billy Hamilton DH: Chris Owings
Id say this team would win more games because they have some power here with Howard, Ramirez, and Desmond. |

| considering the lowest players in OPS have neither power or OB% then it's the worst of both worlds. |
