Vaughn vs Frelick

[TURBO]

Bottom of the 9th, 2 outs, bases loaded, down by 3 runs, right handed pitcher on the mound... Who do you want coming to the plate?

Doesn't matter who started the game, this is not a pinch hitting situation, just a simple question, who do you want hitting in that scenario?

Vaughn or Frelick

So your answer is Frelick.  Cool. 

It's not rocket science, just answer the question.

Maybe a stats guy could really dig in and find out which player has had the most success with bases loaded vs a right handed pitcher in their career?

No my answer is it's way too close for anyone to say one or the other is the clear choice. These are very similar level hitters against RHP both in their careers and since Vaughn became a Brewer.

So you just can't answer the question?  You don't have a gut reaction?
It's an interesting scenario, and you are arguing just for the sake of arguing if you can't answer the question.

There is no right or wrong answer, no prizes, you won't even be ridiculed for your answer.

Why waste time in this thread if you refuse to answer one simple question?

Meh, ok then, you do you.

All I was doing was sharing stats that add context to a question. That's it. You just don't like what the stats say.

Not true, I'm not asking for stat comparison, I just want to know who people would want coming to the plate in that given scenario.

It's odd that the only two people on the site that engaged in the conversation in today's IGT will not answer a simple question that has no consequences.  

Who would you want hitting in that situation?  It's really that simple.
