OK, first off, yes I am old school. I HATE platooning, and what I hate even more is strictly pinch hitting RH for LH, especially young players. How the heck is a lefty gonna learn how to hit a lefty if never given the chance??? And what makes no sense to me even MORE is pinch hitting in the 6th inning or earlier!!!
I wish there was some smart analytics guy out there who coudl run stats and prove me either right or wrong. even if proven right I HATE managing purely by analytics.
