I have the solution!
We all know that Sori doesn’t usually get a good jump on short pop-flies.
We all know that Riot isn’t all that strong on popups.
We all know that Dome is a great RF.
We all know that DeRo is great at tracking popups (all the OF experience helps).
So…
Switch DeRo and Riot. DeRo can play SS as well as Riot (he’s a better pivotman and he has a better arm), and can cover more ground in short LF. Riot is better at 2B, and doesn’t need to help Dome on popups.
Problem solved!
