Why does BudPalmer hit so much better against lefties in AAA JoshHill?

Palmer has OPS'ed 1.037 & 1.044 the last two years and Hill just .900 and .882.

Hill has been .283-.324-.575 and .267-.296-.585

Palmer was    .317-.382-.656 and .328-.398-.646

I know it is only two seasons worth of vL PA's and it is AAA, but could it be Patience/Temper/Makeup that make such a difference.

Palmer is 86 Patience 0 Temper 54 Makeup

Hill is 24 Patience 83 Temper 37 Makeup

Anyway, one may get some considerable platoon MLB time for me this year.  I was thinking Hill...but maybe there is a reason Palmer has outperformed him.

My 2c is Hill's lack of speed/baserunning.

I wouldn't put much stock in AAA numbers.

Could very well just be the quality of LHPs they're seeing in AAA. I wouldn't actually say Palmer has hit "so much better" than Hill.
