		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;d be interested to see how low power, contact-oriented lefties do in platoons splits (and will research this), because the typical left-on-left attack pattern (especially from relievers) seems like it would go to their strength, which is often shooting the ball the other way or up the middle.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nice job, Matt. 

I wonder what you make of Carrera strange splits. As a left-handed hitter, you&#039;d think he&#039;d crush right handed pitchers, but no, he&#039;s hitting .223/.348/.330 against them. It&#039;s when he&#039;s without the platoon advantage that he&#039;s at his best (this year, since this is what the piece is primarily concerned with). Versus left-handers Carrera is hitting .422/.469/.533. Could be a BABIP issue (he&#039;s got a .200 point swing between the two sides), but then I wonder what that says about any improvements he&#039;s made.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I wrote a title and 1000 words lauding Ezequiel Carrera for the changes that he&#039;s made to his pitch selection. Arguing that he can hit, and should be given a bigger chance at a full time spot.

Helps to read the entire piece.]]></description>
