So I'm going with a cheap DH platoon of Matt Nokes to play at home and Cecil Fielder to play on the road. They are both even so it shouldn't matter as much if a righty or lefty is pitching.
Has anyone employed this strategy before? Any chance for some success, or am I doomed?
In 200mil I've used ball park platoons a few times, usually with the left overs in the 6-7 mil range. I've had some success with the individual platoons but I've yet to have one to those teams win 90 games. One time I took it as far as having a RHB for a LHP and a separate RHB for a RHP for a road platoon. Not a great use of resources but their numbers were decent.
