Playing Lefty-righty match-ups

[gws226]

My hafner/Klesko platoon has been excellent so far this year, but I've been getting absolutely burned every time I try my Burrell/Preston platoon with the coors factor adding in.

Trot Nixon: .355 BA .453 OBP (!) 1.077 OPS against RHP. Great investment if you can get him off of waivers (unlikely now). Unfortunately he doesn't play against lefties, but he's always destroyed righties. I platoon him with Konerko (I have pujols at 1st), and he seems to get most of the playing time.

Giving Giles a rest against lefties seems like a good idea. i'll try it next time
