Hal's Bias

Does Hal have a bias against under 1 million dollar hitters who appear to be good platoon players

I have used Bobby Morgan-Pumpsie Green- and Mark Lemke as cheap rh platoon players with these numbers

Morgan .195/.296/.403
Green .148/.281/.148
Lemke .160/.192/.280

These are their split numbers against lefties- I also have benched them against reverse lefties so they are only playing in games that they have the advantage on both sides of card.

The RH half of platoons ends up being a very small sample size. And how guys like this perform depends on the park they are in and the cap level, with minor adjustments also for opposing parks and opposing pitching staffs. Plus, HAL doesn't always remove these guys against unfavorable pitching matchups. You may find that they are getting 20-25% of their PA's against RH pitching. Hidden in that is PA's against severely reverse LH relievers. These numbers may also be "improvements" on what their platoon mates would have produced.
