I think there are many factors to consider, clearly patience on waiting for a good fastball is preferred. As you move up in rank though the higher ranked players you're going to face. The competition only gets stiffer especially as players began to put more and more points into the different traits making it harder for you to beat them. From my experiences it seems that putting points into the different traits play a bigger part in how well you'll do rather than having a big star player. Play a weak traited player and you'll notice a huge difference in how easy it is to win even if they have really good players. I will say though you might be on to something to an extent, I had J. Upton batting in like the 6-7th slot and would do great for me considering his stats weren't amazing. I think he had 6 bat, 9 power, and 5 speed. He'd do almost as well as my big 5 star players Trout and Puig who bat 3,4.
I remember starting out that Maicer Izturis was hitting like .400. and I had him for quite some time. I get Brian McCann, who is more than double Izturis in every category, and he hits .150. I don't understand it.
