    I can’t pick them up at all, I’m always surprised when I manage to get a hit off one.

    I always feel worse vs lefties, but your question got me thinking so I wanted to look at how true that was.

    My lineup:
    Lefties VS RHP VS LHP
    Steve Finley .336 .222
    Kyle Schwarber .277 .333
    Rizzo .326 .300

    Switch Hitters
    Chipper .355 .271
    Wander Franco .259 .333

    Righties
    Jackie Robinson .317 .389
    Castellanos .390 .455
    Trea Turner .338 .409

    I think Chipper is pretty telling in that he's the one I have used the most and those splits are pretty extreme. Schwarber and Franco haven't been on the team long and don't have a large sample size. Overall not as bad as I thought though

    This Team Affinity moment with junk baller Eric Lauer vs. Johnny Bench is ridiculous. I can't touch that scrub.

    Yeah. You have to cheat inside at setup with your PCI to get to them and then become a bit exposed to offspeed away or at least I do. Pick your poison….

    I've gotten better at hitting lefties over the last two game cycles - I didn't play DD before last year. Just took practice and experience.

    I do admit I'm pretty sure my BA v. LH pitchers is around 20-30 points lower than my average v. RH pitching. Like 320 v. RH, and 290 something v. LH.

    Only with left-handed hitters, which is why I don’t use them.

    4 righties and 4 switch in my lineup atm. Griffey’s 99 will eventually get a spot tho.
