Best Lineup - New York Yankees
In my previous post, I looked at the best lineup for the Cincinatti Reds. Next up are the New York Yankees in my Best Lineup series. The Yankees have had many injuries along with a few new faces this pre-season. I will compare the lineup that MLB Depth Charts lists as their most likely lineup against what the simulator thinks is the best lineup and this will be done both against a RH and LH pitcher. In order to do this the simulator plays one game millions of times and picks the game with the highest winning percentage as the best lineup. And a last note before the results are shown. The injury to Mark Teixeira happened after I had started the Yankees portion of this exercise. I will address a lineup without Teixeira in a later post. Below are the results.
