Talk:The Art of Platooning: How it Could Effectively be Employed by the Blue Jays/@comment-101807-20060315135326

It&quot;s worth mentioning that righties pitch a large majority of major league innings. Sitting Molina against righties because Zaun&quot;s OPS is a measly 30 points higher means that you&quot;re asking an aging, mediocre defender to take majority of the ABs at catcher this season. That&quot;s a recipe for diminishing returns.  It&quot;s similar with Rios v Hinske. How much does Rios&quot;s clearly better defense and potentially still-developing offense weigh against Hinske&quot;s apparent decline and doubtful outfield abilities?  You&quot;re clearly right about Catalanotto, though.
