Who is your go to pinch hitter?

[cusefan74]

I was just wondering who everyones favorite pinch hitter is on their team. I use the Mets and mine is Kirk Nieuwenhuis. It didn't start like that, but as the season as gone along he has become a great pinch hitter for me against right handers.

Geoff Blum. It seems to be the only time he can git successfully for me.

Every so often, if Carlos Quentin starts on the bench and there's a lefty late in the game, he's a great power source to go to.

Using the Mets as well, my bench currently consists of Ronny Cedeno, Mike Baxter, John Baker(Padres trade), Scott Hairston while using Niewenhuis and Bay in a platoon role in LF. Until recently only Hairston was really my go to guy and let the team in HR for a while too, but since then Bay has REALLY stepped up in his limited role, and Baker's been swinging a hot bat since I picked him up.

Depends.. On Scott's roster Morneau is just horrid vs lefties so he sits against them. So if A righty reliever comes in I pinch hit him in. If Morneau is starting and a righty comes in then I'll put in Blake DeWitt. If a Lefty comes in It'll either be Mastrioani or Parmelee.

Miguel Olivo/ against lefties.

Mike Carp/Justin Smoak platoon at 1st base, so usually Justin Smoak against righties.

Ryan Lavarnway hit a pinch hit homer for me yesterday, he's pretty nice... I have him platooning right now... So either Lavarnway or Aviles, I had LaPorta who can hit well but just wasn't successful so he's in AAA right now

Andruw Jones

If I try and start him I usually end up with a high OBP but low average and a slight bit of power. But pinch hitting him against Lefties he becomes a huge power threat and comes through so often.

I would platoon him but hes too effective at getting me late innings momentum when I need it.

Don't really have one. Whoever delivers in the clutch is what really matters to me.
