hey so if you had to sort the stars into a baseball fielding lineup...
so honestly this is something i've been thinking about for like a year now because last opening day i got struck with the desire to write a robotter baseball AU!! and then wrestled with the dual desires to a) add more of the team into the au and b) be Baseball Accurate and not have an mlb team of all white boys -robo, many of whomst are european and probably actually Did Not Know what a baseball game looked like until the rangers won the WS this past season & they all went to a game together, as besties. i made a whole post about it (the baseball AU dilemma, not the rangers winning the WS).
when i did put some of my Thoughts down in a plotting doc this is what i came up with:
and i do think otter & wedgie as catchers, miro as a pitcher, and the top line as the outfield (robo left field, roope center field, pavs right field) still feels Right!
since that's most of a team anyway, let's round out the rest of a starting lineup (and maybe toss in a couple of other pitchers so miro can have a break every once in a while, because i care) —
per this article, jamie played first base, outfield, and pitched a little when he played baseball so he can be our first baseman because even though i by & large Do Not Engage with him much anymore, it just makes sense.
this interaction between wyatt & bobby witt jr. is deeply important to me (i have the beginning of a cross-sport arranged marriage fic centering on these two in my wip folder) (i will probably finish it off this summer) so for Bobby Witt Jr. Is A Shortstop reasons, wyatt is also a shortstop.
and actually just to round out the fact that we've got all of the top line in the outfield and most of the third line in the infield, let's make short king logan stankoven our second baseball, à la known short king second baseman josé altuve
hmmm okay third base. craig smith. this is a pure vibes pick so if anyone has Other Thoughts please air them out
harls should get to be another pitcher!! to keep with the idea of him being paired with miro!!! honestly going strictly off that logic harls should be a catcher so they're a battery, but i think both of them being pitchers is fun. pitcher harls you're real in my heart!!!
actually further down in my notes i'd written ('tyler’s the like ……… vet pitcher who’s just getting his arm back after a couple surgeries') and you know what. yeah, why not.
make mush a reliever so you get some bullpen nonsense from him & tyler and we're GOLDEN
this isn't the whole team so i'm sorry if that's what you wanted!! there's just so many more guys in hockey. and also i cannot realistically picture like ........... daddy or suter or esa sitting in a dugout chompin away at seeds yk?? they lack the Vibes (imo)
#replies#rpf talk#for bringing up fic twice sorry :(#also i did robotter-as-baseball players fanart last summer that i'm not actually 100% happy with anymore#because i cleaned up their hair/faces some on the unposted versions where they're wearing rangers uniforms & not stars uniforms#the new rangers versions look BETTER imo & i just haven't made the effort to update the versions i posted w the new face/hair layers#and i didn't want to post the rangers versions until i wrote the baseball au fic. so we're at an impasse about it all but they Exist#ETA: i just rewatched the vid in the wyatt/bobby witt jr tweet and i remember why this was such a huge thing in my head ...... oh my god#who chose that music!!#why is it giving 'quaint bed & breakfast popular with honeymooners making a facebook post about our new heart-shaped jacuzzi'!!!
