Next home stand we face the Pirates and Diamondbacks.
Both teams have big left/right splits on offense.
If we swap Paddack and Strahm in the upcoming Dodger series, Paddack, a right handed pitcher, will face the Diamondbacks instead of lefty Strahm.
We would throw 4 lefties against the Pirates who have only a .588 OPS against lefties.
Strahm, who pitched Wednesday, would still get plenty of rest with 2 off days between starts.
