Offense/Defense combo players > Defense/Pitching > Offense/Pitching

I've tested them using full drafts. Of all the teams I built, the best ones were by far success-wise were ones with lackluster starting pitching, but guys who could hit and field. They dont all have to be juggernaut power hitters, but everyone should be able to hit .275+, and be able to do something else (power, speed, OBP or a combination)

Its hard to do over a long period of time, but if your meticulous you can do it. I have also found having a solid bullpen is helpful too (and cheaper than SP's)

I like the Pitching/D teams and I do build them too, but they always seem to lose way too many games when your starter gives up 1-3 early runs and you cant seem to claw back, and they end up being the teams that win 85-90 games and miss the playoffs
