[quote:0397a48544="hallerose"][quote:0397a48544="Woody5"][quote:0397a48544="hallerose"]I'm thinking Molina is a better DH against lefties than Ortiz, or just leave it blank and let Hal choose each game.[/quote:0397a48544]
You could make an argument but I think it's 6 in one hand/ half a dozen in another. Plus I like to put Molina in for D in the late innings.[/quote:0397a48544]
Make Veritek your DH and use Molina at C (Molina .832 OPS vs. L; Ortiz .599 OPS vs. L).[/quote:0397a48544]
1) I don't think Molina's card is that much better than Ortiz vs. LHP
2) If I DH Varitek and have Molina catching, HAL will not remove Molina for a pinch hitter because I have my only 2 catchers in the lineup. That renders Ortiz useless late in games.
3) I have an issue with sitting $6 million on the bench. It may be stupid but that's how I feel.
Thanks for the input though.
