What is with everyone's hatred towards JC Romero? He is one of the best lefty specialists in the game; not his fault that his managers have been dumb enough to use him vs. righties regularly when he clearly can't get them out.Bleeding Green wrote:I don't know, JC Romero could come in.
JC Romero vs. Lefties the last 2 years...
2006: .202 BAA, 1.22 WHIP
2005: .198 BAA, 1.06 WHIP
...I suspect Francoma will use him wrong as well but Romero can be a pretty effective reliever vs. lefties.

Yeah, he is pretty awesome vs. lefties but he pitched against righties just as much and he got torched by them.Bleeding Green wrote:Oh, snap, I didn't realize he was so good against lefties.
2006: 25 1/3 innings vs. lefties, 23 vs. righties despite allowing a .382 BAA against right handed hitters and 2.35 WHIP while pitching great vs. lefties.
2005: 28 1/3 innings vs. lefties, 28 2/3 innings vs. righties despite allowing a .268 BAA to righties (not too bad) and 2.06 WHIP while pitching great against lefties.
Someone needs to let one of Romero's managers know he is lights out vs. lefties and horrid vs. right handed batters one of these years and he'll be a very good reliever.
