Where Rizzler Wins

AI lineup generation. Rizzler's AI Batting Order analyzes player stats — batting average, OBP, OPS, strikeout rate — and generates an optimized lineup in seconds. GameTime Lineups doesn't offer AI-generated lineups.

Pitch counting and arm care. Rizzler tracks pitch counts in real time during games, calculates rest days automatically, flags catcher-to-pitcher conflicts, and cascades pitch data across tournament weekends. GameTime Lineups doesn't include pitch tracking.

Tournament planning. Rizzler's tournament planner maps pitching, lineups, and compliance across 3, 5, or 7 games in a weekend. GameTime Lineups plans one game at a time.

Full coaching platform. Rizzler includes scoring, heatmaps, player evaluations, evaluation events, tryouts, and an organization dashboard. It's a complete coaching tool, not just a lineup builder.
