Baseball Lineup Pro

Read full description

LineupPro is the ultimate lineup management tool for baseball coaches. Whether you run a youth league team or a travel ball squad, LineupPro uses AI-driven analysis to build optimal batting orders, rotate fielding positions fairly, and keep every player in the game. SMART LINEUP CREATION Stop spending hours before each game figuring out who bats where and who plays which position. LineupPro's AI engine analyzes your players' stats — batting average, OBP, SLG, speed, power, fielding percentage, and position experience — to recommend a complete lineup in seconds. Batting order is optimized from leadoff through cleanup, and fielding positions rotate intelligently across every inning. FAIR PLAY MONITOR Youth baseball means every kid deserves time on the field. The Fair Play Monitor gives you a visual inning-by-inning position matrix so you can see at a glance who's playing, who's on the bench, and for how long. Automatic warnings alert you when a player has been benched too many consecutive innings or is stuck in only infield or outfield spots. GAMECHANGER IMPORT Already tracking stats in GameChanger? Import your team's CSV export directly into LineupPro. Batting, pitching, fielding stats, and position experience are all pulled in automatically and matched to your existing roster. No manual data entry required. MULTI-TEAM SUPPORT Coach more than one team? Manage multiple rosters, schedules, and lineups all within a single app. Switch between teams with one tap. AI PLAYER ASSESSMENTS Get individual player ratings on a 0–10 scale for batting, fielding, and pitching. See each player's best positions, suggested batting order slot, and a plain-language scouting summary — all generated from their real stats. GAME MANAGEMENT Create games with opponent, date, and inning count. Build lineups inning by inning, copy lineups between innings or from previous games, and mark games complete to build your season history. STATS DASHBOARD View team-wide leaderboards for batting average, OPS, RBI, ERA, strikeouts, fielding percentage, and more. Track which positions each player has experience at and how many innings they've logged. FULLY OFFLINE LineupPro works entirely on your device. No account required, no internet needed. Your data stays private and local. SUBSCRIPTION INFORMATION LineupPro offers a free trial for new users. After the trial, a subscription is required to access all features including AI lineup suggestions, fair play monitoring, live game mode, and GameChanger import.

Lineup Buddy makes setting a youth baseball or softball lineup quick, fair, and stress-free. Enter your roster once, tap a button, and get a complete batting order and inning-by-inning fielding chart that rotates players the way a good coach would — automatically. Built for coaches and team parents who'd rather spend their time on the field than wrestling with a spreadsheet. GENERATE FAIR LINEUPS INSTANTLY • Randomized batting order for the whole game — everyone bats. • Fresh fielding assignments for each of the 6 innings. • Rotates players so they don't get stuck at one position. • Keeps first base for the players you mark as first-base eligible. • Spreads infield time so every player gets in before anyone doubles up, and avoids back-to-back infield where the numbers allow. • Mixes each player between infield and outfield over the game. • Shares bench time fairly when you have more players than field spots. SCALES TO YOUR GAME • Works with 7 to 15 players. • Choose 9 or 10 fielders per game — the positions adjust automatically (single center fielder for 9, left-center and right-center for 10). • Positions adapt to how many players actually show up. EDIT ANYTHING BY HAND • Drag to reorder the batting order. • Set any position in any inning yourself, or copy the previous inning and tweak. • Mark a player out for a single game (sick, absent) — they're left out of the lineup and that game's stats, with one tap to add them back. • Enter a past game manually to keep your records complete. TRACK THE SEASON • Log each at-bat: single, double, triple, home run, walk, strikeout, or reached on error — plus RBIs. • Per-player season stats: batting average, hits by type, RBIs, walks, strikeouts, and games played. • See how many innings each player has spent at every position, including bench, and where they've hit in the order. MULTIPLE TEAMS • Manage more than one team, each with its own roster, settings, and season — perfect if you coach more than one squad. PRIVATE BY DESIGN • No account, no sign-up, no ads. • Everything stays on your device. Nothing is collected, tracked, or sent anywhere. Spend less time on logistics and more time coaching. Download Lineup Buddy and have a fair lineup ready before warm-ups are over.
