    The original scenario is you either have two dominate pitchers and an average team or three or four outstanding posistion players and average pitching. This being the case I stand by my earlier post. Now if you have really good hitters in your 6 7 8 spots you have an outstanding offensive line up given that the 1 2 3 4 5 are at least as good as the 6 7 8. Who wouldnt take that line up.

    Give me the pitching and I'll take my chances with the average Joe's. As long as the defense is solid, I like my chances. This is also coming from an ex-pitcher who has a son that pitches. Go figure!!!:huh:

    Little ol major league squad the just broke the curse of the Bambino had:

    1/Great/good pitching (Maybe heroic is a better term)
    2/Horrible defense
    3/ Great hitting
    4/ AWESOME CHEMISTRY + A WILL TO WIN

    I know we are talking about High School but the principle is still the same. ANd by the way I am a Braves fan. "Pitching galore. Decent hitting. Great defense. But almost no chemistry/will to win year after year after year....
    I think it is magnified in testostorone laden 16-18 year olds.
