Just curious..... he was a great ground ball pitcher.... lots of double plays.... when facing him ... has any of us changed the settings of the hitters... like "hit and run" more? Would doing something like that be the smart thing to do?
I think the difference would be negligible. He's just a tough pitcher to beat. More power bats in the lineup is advised, because if the other team is playing at a lower cap, say 80M, it's likely they don't have many power bats given the salary for Maddux.
