Feature suggestion

I love to use the bottom third of my hitting lineup for guys with huge L/R splits to play matchups with the awesome daily tool on this site.  Platooning 1B with Adam Lind and Garrett Jones for instance has been just as good if not better than most of the 1B situations in my league!

It's clear that you guys have a number that you plug into each player with the monster factors for left and right handed splits - I'd LOVE to see a list with those numbers on the site.  This would be a tremendous help in targeting fringe players for matchup benefits.

Basically what I'm suggesting is a list saying which players have the highest bonus facing left handed pitchers according to your data and which players have the highest bonus against right handed pitchers in a sortable table.

Seems like you already have the data available and it would really help making the platoon game easy for your users.  Thanks!

Yes, we do have that data and will look into making it more accessible. Maybe as a sortable column under Projections/Daily Projections?

Maybe even under player rankings the ability to switch players rankings vs. Righty, vs. Lefty, or both. I think that would be very beneficial. There are players such as Lind and Viciedo that I keep on bench just to use in favorable matchups.

We probably don't have all of the data to pull that off, but we can add it to our list.

Yes as a sortable column would work out great!
