Who are your preferred 13 position players?

[Greg Pappas]

Who are your preferred 13 position players and how would you play them?
While we are at 14 currently, 13 is the norm.

Here's mine, but you can use it as a template if you'd like:

1B    *O'Hearn
2B    Westburg
SS    Ortiz
3B    *Henderson
CA    #Rutschman
LF    Hays
CF    *Mullins (IL currently) Hicks while Mullins is on the IL
RF    *Cowser
DH    #Santander
    
X    Mateo
X    Urias
X    #Hicks (in CF until Mullins returns) Mountcastle until then. Westburg has played corner OF, and can be that fifth OF.
C    McCann

I like your list, but I'd take Frazier over Mateo...only because he is a left-handed hitter.   With Westburg, Henderson, Ortiz, and Urias, the infield will be fine.   Relegate Frazier to PH duty, with an occasional start.

I would replace Mateo with Mounty.

Ahhh, working and missed that. Thanks.  Changed the title and question with that update.

Dang it...I didn't realize Mountcastle wasn't on the list!   I would probably do this, too.
