I think Nathans_Dad has a good philosophy and if he can keep putting up runs by the 4th for a lead, I'd stay with the plan. But, if they are in a tight contest, I'd poll the players and ask what they'd do.

"You guys want to try and win this? I think I have an idea."

When I played ball, there was no question the better players played the positions best suited to their skills. I had a weak arm but a good bat, or otherwise I would have not played many innings. As it was, I played right field and sometimes 2nd base. I don't remember any scars from not being the best ball player on the team, but I remember the team photos, trophies, and after game ice cream.

There's a big picture here.
