Been running this in my league and we're about 30 games over .500 at what would be the trade deadline. Don't use the gap part, but the 20% either way is already there. It seriously helps in the auction house like you say, and its hilarious how the home/road splits look. As an example, thru about 16 starts (I'm at work so just off the top of my head), Harvey Haddix has 16 HR's allowed thru 48.2 innings on the road and 2 HR's allowed in 73.1 IP at home.
I do use some platooning, but as always, lefty hitters get the higher side of the platoon and it helps to keep some of the players fresh anyways. I've so far managed to find 4 lefty starters I'm happy with and 4 of my 7 bullpen guys are lefty as well. It would be 5 but I can't find a lefty long guy I like yet.
I hadn't considered the pack spam part of it yet. Might have to incorporate that. I've only really opened 3 packs since the initial 6. 2 of the 3 paid off and I'm sure over time like you said the numbers would work in my favor. Thanks for that suggestion!
