Bullpen strategy, again. Help?

This is insanely frustrating. I've played 12 games and the LOOGYs have yet to face a single lefty. They are still being brought in to face Manny, Vlad, Glaus, and 8L David Bell!

quidoz,

you can't blame Hal for using the lefties vs Bell/Ramirez/Glaus in the last game. Wurtz had been used in the game; Rivera's dot was on---three singles/walks in his inning period (one). McClung is set at mop-up, but the game wasn't a washout yet. So the lefties were the only relievers available at that time.

While I would have preferred leaving in Rivera to face the righties, or at least Bell (avoiding 8L Bell vs 9L Stanton), I also have J.J. Putz (9R) on my team who was not used in that game. So I can, and will, blame HAL :D


(Or I also have Gryboski, a 9L but at least he is right handed...)
