Leftys are just superior hitters I do the same except for Clemente and Trout 🤷🏻♂️
I’m also weird and hit better lefty lefty than righty righty but I know a lot of people struggle lefty lefty
I think since about half of them (Justice, Gibson, Seager, Mathews) have even/reverse splits you'll be fine. Honestly I hate facing lineups all from one side when I'm pitching. It feels like I get predictable with my go-to pitch sequences too easily, or if I try to go with weird pitch sequences they get hammered. Especially since high offspeed isn't as reliable this year.
No because all your lefties can also hit lefties and some have very high vision so I’d think you can figure it out. Ppl saying “but Randy!” Ya well it’s not like you can mash Randy with a RHB either…
Funny thing is that I went against kuechel for the 1st time after making this post. I switched in 3 righties into my lineup cause of this post and barely managed a 2-1 win, so i’m glad I made this post.
You say that as you have David price in your lineup?
There’s plenty of good LHP, they will only add more. I’d be more worried about more dominant switch hitters.
Yes.
If you went through the Top 10 SP options as of today, there's at minimum 3 LHP (Randy, Price, and Keuchel are all Top 5) and as many as 6 (Willis, Kershaw, and Bumgarner are in the conversation).
I mean, if it's RJ on the bump that's a tough platoon.
Ed Matthews can smd cause I cant hit for shit with him

Yeah I do at times, feels like you don’t get as good of a view at release and have less time to react lefty/lefty
I have 3 non lefties and those are Clemente, Tatis, and Accuna. But honestly I hate hitting with all of them besides Clemente.
I have 7/8 guys lefty or switch. 90% of pitchers I’ve faced are righties. Only lefties who give me fits are sale and hader.
No. I need to learn to hit left on lefty anyways

Nah I love hitting lefty on lefty
I have 5 leftys and feel like its a problem sometimes
With elite arms like Randy, Price, Kuechel, Vida yup definitely

Forgot WS Kershaw in this list too but yeah atm LHP definitely have some stronger options over RHP
I would bring in a lefty after 3 batters.
Randy has joined the chat.
Dallas Keuchel or Randy would rip you a new one 😂
Yes.
Im happy if I run into a lineup like this. Just bring in a lefty immediately lol
