Line-ups and Reserves for Statis-Pro World Baseball Classic

The following are the starting line-ups and reserves we chose for our Statis-Pro Baseball All-Time World Baseball Classic Game. The cards are not yet made.

Each team had a starting line-up - and we plan to make pitchers hit to allow more of the reserves to pinch hit - then 11 reserves. The reserves must include two extra catchers and two extra outfielders, and then one extra player at every other position. That leaves three extra positions that can come from any position.

The three divisions I will plan to use when I get around to creating these cards and playing them:

Group 1 - Venezuela, Dominican Republic, Cuba and Florida. Those 4 line up nicely and Miami being the largest Cuban population would make that logical (Southern division).

Group 2 - While Puerto Rico is obviously close to all of Group 1, the fact that New York has the largest Puerto Rican population makes it most logical for Puerto Rico to be flying to our Northern Division to play New York, Canada and Pennsylvania.

Group 3 - the Western Division is also logical, though obviously thousands of miles from Mexico to Japan. Still, with California and Texas in between those two that will be our final division.

The startign line-up is listed in order, then the reserves are listed in alphabetical order.

The one that is a little confusing is Asia. We are listing batting for all teams with the pitchers hitting 9th in each game. However, we are playing DHs including Shohei Ohtani at 1st base when they would DH. Ohtani always bats 2nd in the line-up. If he is not the pitcher, then he plays first base and therefore Ji-Man Choi plays 1st base and bats 9th since the pitcher is the No. 2 spot. However, if Ohtani is not the starting pitcher, then he simply plays 1st base on the No. 9 batter is the pitcher, with Choi moving to the bench.
