Does anybody know how good a pitcher's wOBA (or any other preferred stat) to justify using him as a pinch hitter?
I feel almost certain that it was covered here, possibly as part of the line-up optimization. If not then I bet (or more accurately hope) that Tango did some work on it and that somebody knows it.
I'm planning to write a fanpost on it, probably comparing teams that have good pitcher-hitters like the Astros' Mike Hampton versus great ones like the Reds' Micah Owings
If Anybody has any suggestions or something they want to hear about related to this, feel free to leave a comment. Scratch that. Please leave a comment.
Thanks in advance
