If this were a regular season game, this logic might work with me. But in an elimination game I want the best players on the field, even if the matchup isn't ideal.

Plus a good part of the OBP comes from the HBPs, which I don't know if that's skill or a crazy fluke.

Abysmal wOBA or not, he's not getting 32 AB's vs FL tonight. He just needs be ok for (hopefully) 2 or 3.

Choo vs lefties tonight. .333/.500/1.333
Well that was one thing that worked tonight.
