Question for the pros. I will be playing a series at US Cellualr a RHBP. The opponent however is very poor against LH pitching. Do you suggest setting up pitching that meets the BP or the batting order? My team can put up two LH or RH pitchers.

I don't think the difference is great enough (20% on a BPHR chance, even on singles) to let that decide. Too many other variables. Do your RH starters give up no BPHRs but your lefties do or visa versa? What does your opponent look like from a BPHR perspective?

Net net I'd start the pitchers that match up best with his lineup, considering it a favorable BPHR for both sides.

Thanks. That is what i have been doing more or less.
