How do you place players in the proper position in the batting order?

You see which ones are most likely to get on base for the first 3 batters, and the 4th is who can hit the ball far, in hopes of driving in a grand slam or the most possible people. For 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th, it is 5th the best hitter in the 5th-9th group and 9th the worst, and line 6th to 8th up accordingly.------------------------------------------------------------------The Basic lineupHitter one - should have speed, and have a high on base average. Hitter two - should have the same qualities as the number one hitter but also be apt in hitting the baseball with precisions to sacrifice or hit the ball so that the runner on base can be advanced or moved into scoring position.Hitter three- is your best overall hitter, that could hit for both average, and for power.Hitter four - is your "cleanup hitter" A batter that has the ability to drive in runs with both power, extra base hits, and should also be a high average hitter.Hitter five is also an RBI spot, and should also be a good enough hitter to "protect" the number 4 hitter. Otherwise the opposing team could avoid pitching to the number 4 hitter and pitch to the weaker number 5 hitter in a RBI situation.Hitter six should have the same qualities as the number 5 hitter.This trend should continues to the 7th, 8th, or 9thhitters your weakest hitters on the team. The 9th spot in the order is reserved for the pitcher in the National League. In the American league the number 9 hitter should have some speed as not to slow down the number one hitter when getting on base when the lineup turns over or act as a lead off hitter to start an inning.
