Over the course of an entire season, the difference between a perfect lineup and the most awful lineup you could possibly constuct that no sane person would use, is about 4 or 5 losses. In an entire year. In a few weeks, the difference, at most, is less than 1 win. Our lineup is not the ideal lineup we should use, but its pretty far from the worst.

I mean putting one of your worst hitters in the leadoff spot..nah, minimal impact......
