He's naturally great against righties, but you'll have to live with the times he gets left in to face two or three lefties as well.

I try to avoid the extreme guys myself since it took me an hour to get my foot out of the monitor last time Garman gave up 5 or 6 runs in the 9th to blow the win.

I'm sure there are guys that use them successfully though. Probably depends on the mix of hitters you'll be facing and whether your park diminishes the impact of their bad side at all.

I use him on almost every team, usually successfully. You need to be careful of the card settings and manager settings. I use him only as a set up or closer and only against RH. I set his card to avoid LH hitters and not to come in before the 8th inning.

For susccess with him...you need to follow geezers advice above...additionally you need to have enough bullpen guys to allow him to be used sparingly....so for a one sided guy like this to have success make sure you have say 3 other choices in the bullpen.

I would just as soon go with Garman or Osinski for the price difference.
