I'm the biggest TWalk fan in the world, and I have no problem with sitting him vs. lefties. His flukish 2005 aside (don't even look at 04, not nearly enough ABs vs. LHP to conclude anything), Walker has been pretty bad against lefties throughout his career. Is it possible that at 32, Walk suddenly figured out how to hit lefties? I suppose, but I doubt it and would sooner attribute his 2005 line vs. lhp to luck. Straight platoon is fine with me. yep same here. Walker will still get most of the starts, but Hairston will also get his share against lefties. I have no problem with the platoon at 2nd between Walker and Hairston.
