He kills RH relievers to the tune of a 1.092 OPS for the season (19-52 with 8 XBH).But in his actual ABs vs LH starters specifically, he's 4-20. Against lefty relievers, 3-21.Agree that he's a gamer regardless, but fine with him not leading off vs. LHSP for now.I understand the stats. IMO, it makes no sense to sit him on the bench every time a team has a LH starter. As far as leading Chase off in stead of Sam against LH pitchers, I see your point.

In an ideal world, he and Meidroth platoon at 2B.I need to see a lot more at bats against lefties before I say Sam can't hit them. He didnt look over matched vs skubal.

10 hours ago10 hr 2 hours ago, tray said:"batting splits are for the entire game when the starter was LH or RH. These splits include any subsequent plate appearances against a reliever regardless of their throwing hand."So....when an opposing team deploys a LH starter , his split BA goes up to .325 (Baseball Reference.com) That, and the fact that Venable wants some of the young players like Chase, Colson and Sam to face good starting pitchers no matter if they are LH or a RH.My own opinion is that Chase, Antonacci and Peters are gamers and therefore, I like them in the line-up whenever they are able to play.Eckstein and Madrigal are also available...

Alphabetically in front of my Dead Kennedy's , Dead or Alive, Death and Death in June CD s.In my teens, my band did a few Dead Boys songs. Easy to make sound good. Just turn up the distortion. Young, Loud & Snotty is a great album.

As far as leading Chase off in stead of Sam against LH pitchers, I see your point.Totally agree he should still get reps, and he typically does (just lower in the order, like today).He's started in 53/60 games since he's been up, which includes starting more games against LHSP than not. He also came in off the bench in 6/7 games he didn't start, so only 1 true off day for him so far.
