Starting pitcher splits are very finicky things to base one's opinions of a player on. Given the relatively small samples that starters are dealing with, all it takes is one crazy game from a lefty hitter to ruin your platoon splits or a couple of bad games on the road to make a guy look bad away from home. As a result, those sorts of differences in splits (especially when they aren't that big) need to be taken with a grain of salt. However, in trading for Shane Baz, the Baltimore Orioles may be placing a pretty big bet on that very type of splits.
