Batting Lineup Builder
The batting lineup builder suggests batting order based on OBP, power, and contact metrics from your season data.
How the Order Is Built
The algorithm uses a traditional lineup construction approach:
| Spot | Priority Metric | Logic |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | OBP | Get on base most consistently |
| 2nd | Contact + Speed | Make contact, move runners |
| 3rd | BA + Power | Best all-around hitter |
| 4th | Power (SLG) | Drive in runs |
| 5th | Power | Second power bat |
| 6th–7th | BA | Solid contact hitters |
| 8th–9th | Remaining | Lower-data players |
Reordering the Lineup
Drag and drop any player card to change their spot in the order. Changes are reflected immediately in the stat comparison panel.
Stat Comparison Panel
The panel on the right (or bottom on mobile) shows key metrics for every player in the lineup:
- BA (Batting Average)
- OBP (On-Base Percentage)
- SLG (Slugging)
- HR, RBI
- K% and BB%
- Recent form sparkline
Use this panel to evaluate your drag-and-drop changes against the data.
Sparklines
Each player card shows a mini sparkline of their last 10 at-bats. This gives you a quick read on current hot/cold streaks independent of season totals. A player hitting .280 for the season but going 0-for-8 in their last two games may not be the right choice for the 3 hole today.
Saving a Lineup
Tap Save Lineup to save the current configuration. Name the lineup (e.g. "Opening Day" or "Vs RHP") for reference. Saved lineups appear in the lineup history and can be recalled for future games.
Game Day Share
Tap Share to send the batting lineup via text, email, or any messaging app using the Web Share API. The shared format includes player names and jersey numbers in batting order — easy to send to parents or post in the dugout.
