Game Planning — Lineup, Fielding & Pitching in One View

Rizzler's game planning tool puts your batting order, fielding rotation, and pitching assignments in a single drag-and-drop view. Build a complete game plan in about 10 minutes on your laptop, then execute it from your phone in the dugout. Every change you make ripples through the rest of the game automatically — move a player in the third inning and Rizzler adjusts innings four through six without you touching them.

Most coaches plan games in pieces. Batting order on one sheet. Fielding rotation on another. Pitching plan in their head. Then they spend the game trying to keep all three aligned while also coaching.

Rizzler puts all three in one place and keeps them synchronized.

Batting order sits on the left side of the screen. Drag players into position or let the AI Batting Order generate one for you. Standard 9-player order or continuous batting order — Rizzler handles both.

Fielding rotation fills the center — a grid of positions (pitcher, catcher, 1B, 2B, SS, 3B, LF, CF, RF) by innings. Drag players into position slots. Rizzler highlights conflicts: if you put a player at pitcher who doesn't have enough rest days, you'll see a warning before you save. Need help? AI Fielding Positions builds the rotation for you on the Pro plan.

Pitching assignments sit on the right. Assign your starter, set a target pitch count, and designate your relief options. Rizzler shows each pitcher's current rest status and flags anyone who's ineligible based on league rules.

When you change something — any player, any position, any inning — Rizzler recalculates every downstream inning. Move your shortstop to pitcher in the fourth inning? Rizzler needs someone at shortstop for innings four through six. It suggests options based on who's available.

It's one view. Not three separate screens, not a spreadsheet with multiple tabs. One view where you see the whole game at once.

Changes cascade. Make an edit in inning three and innings four through six update automatically. This is the feature coaches say saves the most time — especially mid-game when plans change fast.

Rules are checked as you build. Rizzler knows your league's rules — pitch count limits, rest day requirements, minimum play, catcher-to-pitcher restrictions. It checks every decision against the rules and flags violations before you save. More on rule compliance →

It syncs to your phone. Save the plan on your laptop at 10 PM. Open the iOS app at the field the next morning. It's there. Make a change during the game and the web app updates too.
