Anyone use Dellucci in a pitcher's park?

[Rant]

Contemplating about and ruminating on mid-season moves ... curious if anyone has used Dead-Arm Dellucci in the field, in a pitcher's park.

Thanks!

Not in a pitcher's park, in the Cell.

Would use him again... :lol:

He would seem to be one of the worst possible choices unless there are unusual circumstances, like every other team is in US Cell.

It does seem counterintuitive. And the reason why I won't likely be playing him.

Certainly wouldn't get max value from his card, but (in a platoon) his OBP is good and he has 5.805 home runs chances on his right side.

In Petco against righties his card plays out to:
83 AB
17.25 H
1.8 2B
1.5 3B
10 HR
23 BB
2 HBP
0.208 BA
0.391 OBP
0.627 SLG
1.018 OPS
8.36 RC/27
10.71BR



His fielding would stink up the joint though, and he'd likely wind up batting about .100 all told.

I've been tempted to put him on a team, but haven't been able to bring myself to do it.

What's funny is that if he were a +2 arm, we wouldn't even be talking about this.

Weak arms come into play much more often in CF as you know. For those who don't know, there is a -2 adjustment that takes place on throws to 3rd from LF. So a 1-11 runner would be a 1-12 on a SINGLE (LF), going from 1st to 3rd.

However, a 1-11 would be a 1-16 on a SINGLE (LF) with two out, and a play at the plate (2 out adjustment = +2). Yet, a +2 LF arm would be a 1-15 in the same situation.

Dellucci makes a perfect DH vs. RH's in a hitting park.

How's that for short and sweet?

I had him in RFK...15 hrs 36 rbi .214 BA .348 OBA In other words, DON'T DO IT!!!
