January 26, 20179 yr QUOTE (GreenSox @ Jan 25, 2017 -> 09:27 PM) Indians will do some platooning. Ventura never was interested. Hopefully the Sox do it when they build the team back up. It's an efficient way to maximize value. Further explanation required.
January 26, 20179 yr QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jan 24, 2017 -> 08:37 PM) http://www.espn.com/mlb/player/splits/_/id...09/brian-dozier Those splits should answer any question about his performance last season. Looks like he was equally as valuable on the road as at home, so I'm not sure exactly what you're getting at here.

If it did play as a more favorable hitter's park, then hitting better on the theoretically close to neutral composite field of all visiting stadiums should affirm his pretty spectacular offensive season.

Just wanted to clarify. Couldn't find them off hand, but I believe Target Field is more favorable to RH pull power hitters, but all the same, Dozier had a phenomenal year and is a great player. We're on the same page.

That's a nice signing for Cleveland. Logan was good last year. He put up a 3.23 FIP pitching home games at Coors. He only allowed an .OPS of .477 vs LHH too. 11 K/9.
