Any reason to keep an ATG over a regular Legend with better numbers? I'm looking at Hoiles (610/711/619) vs Berra (610/711/612). I know this year only keepers that were ATGs got the X-factor. Thoughts?
Glu's coding gives a significant advantage to platoon matchups (i.e. L vs R). Since about 80% of all ABs are against RHPs, a left-handed or switch hitter is always a huge plus. Hoiles also has the RISP skill which isn't very good. IMO Berra would be the easy choice there.

Xfactors were added later in the year and I expect them to be on all keepers this time so I wouldnt let that factor into your decision at all. If you are deciding between Hoiles and Berra, the ratings are basically the same so I would ask yourself which skill set you like more based on how you play the game. Theres no wrong answer, I would guess a majority of people would choose Berra but again its really your call.
Just an FYI: ML also has 2x skills and an Xfactor(plat+), which will ultimately make him better than any keeper. For that reason, I'd ignore position and just take the best bats.
