only if you average everything out when he was an everday starter. He's never been just a specialist who plays part time against lefties, and that's what the Yankees are using him as. You can't say that Richie is great against lefties and then expect him to just become a part time specialist after 12 years in the majors being a starter. This is the mistake that Joe Girardi is making. Sexson is only good when he plays everyday and then after you average out his year, his BA against lefties is always higher, but not if you plug him in as a specialist. This experiment will fail, mark my words, you agree?
