Probably from me here... I've posted those numbers a few times and the numbers of the rest of our right-handers against lefties, which are all very good except for Vizcaino(and Lou realizes this). Shark's good against lefties because he throws that tailing Maddux two-seamer that looks like it's going to hit them and ends up being a strike, and because of his splitter.

Heilman was awful against lefties last season.
