Road Warrior
Ducksnorts looks at Khalil Greene's extreme home/road splits. While managers platooned players based on handedness for decades, I've often wondered if home/road platoons might be appropriate in extreme parks. If the Padres found a shortstop with great OBA skills at PETCO, they could play him at home and Greene on the road. I've often thought that sort of thing would work for Rockies pitchers as well.

see also, Craig Biggio at Minute Maid and on the road. Astros manager has responded to questions urging him to sit Biggio on the road by saying it would be too disruptive for the player's rhythm, etc to consider it.
