Excellent analysis. The decision to use Peralta should not be viewed in a vacuum, though. Schildt almost certainly knows that Peralta's stuff is impacted by the environment, but he also knows that his other pitchers' are affected in similar fashion. He may have determined that Wandy had the best (or least bad) chance of success among the available options. A manager has to use his entire roster, and sometimes guys are used in their ideal role and shit the bed anyway. Keep up the great posts. I don't know who you are, but your work is terrific.
