Was batting Clemente second your idea or the AI manager's idea? I think its a good spot for him in that lineup.

Nuxhall
Joe's a tough one because he had that cuppa aged 16 then didn't make it back for 8 years. But of course that cannot be replicated here. So instead he's just a really crappy version of himself until he finally hits his stride in '54 or so.
He should match his IRL career WAR of 38 (as calculated in-game) no problems - I'd even think he gets up to the 50s by the end with 3-year recalc in play.
Frankie T
Frankie started with a huge bang - 4.8 bWAR rookie season - but has been merely serviceable since then. Should match his HR and WAR totals with plenty to spare with the recalc smoothing his rather untidy IRL dismount somewhat.
I do all our strategy - at both the team and player level - as well as lineups and staff usage. Pretty thorough with it, too, as you'd expect from the control freak I am...
