If Encarnacion is used as a 1B/DH against left handed pitching than it's probably fine. Smaller payroll teams can't just pay a guy 15 million to play a position like that every day, but if you're innovative enough you can get a guy who can be a 850 to 900 OPS producer against left handed or right handed pitching for a lot less and do the platoon thing.
