Lineup Construction

Building a Lineup Process

A repeatable framework for moving from information to a lineup decision you understand and can defend.

A repeatable lineup process starts before the optimizer button is pressed. Begin with the slate, understand the available players, review projections and identify the decisions that matter most to you.

Then use lineup controls deliberately. Locks, excludes, stacking and projection overrides should reflect a reasoned decision rather than a reaction to a single number.

The purpose of an optimizer is to apply your rules consistently. It does not replace your responsibility for contest selection, late news, lineup review or final entry decisions.
