Sit B.Roberts/A. Huff against Greinke tonight?

Postby botown10 » Fri May 15, 2009 9:43 am

Greinkes ERA is 0.51 and I could start P. Sandoval for Huff and H. Kendrick for B. Roberts. Both huff and roberts have been on fire though and i dont really like to sit my studs. Im leaning towards giving Sandoval and Kendrick the nod tonight. What do you guys think? Any input or advice helps. WHIR.

I also have both and plan to start them. No, on paper it's not the best matchup, but Huff is a lefty and Roberts bats switch. Huff is actually 4-13 lifetime against Greinke and Roberts is 2-5. Tiny sample sizes, sure, but I think it's indicative that those two match up fairly well with Greinke.

Usually when two of my players from the same team face a beast (Johan, Lincecum, Greinke), I like to pick the better hitter/current hot bat or what I need more that week (ie runs/SB vs. HR/RBI, etc) and bench the other in case the beast absolutely rapes them, my average doesn't get twice the beating. I'm not saying it's the right strategy, but I like to over manage and it's worked for me in the past. Not sure if I'm making sense, sorry I'm hungover.
