Heh, actually that seems to be my formula, when I take over a team, I've gotten to where I immediately start putting together as good an infield defense as possible. Then load up on the groundball pitchers. Course, sometimes I do bleed for runs on offense during the early stages of this process. But, the pitcher in me just hate seeing high scores and bobbled balls.
