You are right about the OPS vs RC, from things I have read, RC using the 1999 is much better than OPS but I don't know which RC formula OOTP uses. However, there are better stats than RC like Extrapolated Runs (XR), and EqA but unfortunately OOTP doesn't make use of EqA, XR is too complicated so its understandable to not include. Now the next question is about setting lineups. Is the traditional method where the best guy hits 3rd, the best way to set lineups? Are there other methods? What about setting them by OPS or RC, highest to lowest, or this way (rank from highest to lowest, either OPS or RC/27):

1
8
2
7
3
6
4
5
Pitcher

Any strategies other people use in OOTP? How successful are they?
