Albert Belle is a nice DH in the middle of a lineup without much pop. Bader in LF, McReynolds in CF and Suzuki in RF (although based on DonkeyKongs rating hierarchy it seems like maybe I should put Bader back at CF and play Mcreynolds superior arm in LF.
Thanks to DonkeyKongs spreadsheet it shows that Bader could end up at about 114 rating in LF

Your OF are virtually always going to be best in LF, then RF, then CF (only the worst OF don't follow this). However, there can be bigger swings on some players, so you do need to run the calculator to optimize your OF.
Of note, in my records, I've found 6 guys who will rate over 100 at CF, 32 at RF, and 63 at LF.
For a budget 1B, there's always Brandon Belt and his 104 1B rating. However, Silver Tulowitski and Bobby Crosby should peak higher (110 & 108 according to the calculator, but 1B overcalculates by 2 points often).
