Get StartedPlatooning is something we should really look at. Oakland does it with multiple positions, and they score a lot of runs doing it. It has made scrubs like Stephen Vogt and Brandon Moss look like All-Star hitters. The problem is, Ausmus doesn't seem to grasp the notion of a true platoon. He starts Davis against rightys sometimes, which begs the question.. what's the point? A true platoon could have us putting up a .800 OPS at any given position, if the players are right. A lefty to platoon strictly with Davis in CF would bring a lot of value.. Davis is over .800 OPS in his career vs. Leftys, I believe.
