I hate the DH, but I love having Schwarber if that comes to pass. -- nm - pmb Jan 21, 12:02
I would prefer it went the other way but the DH means another job and the union loves it. Also, aging power hitters get to stay in the game. -- nm - Krusty Jan 21, 11:58
About time. -- nm - Spawn Jan 21, 11:57
Weird. I always thought it would go the other way and the DH rule would be dropped. -- nm - TWuG Jan 21, 11:57
wow -- nm - Diva Jan 21, 11:57
bah. -- nm - znufrii Jan 21, 11:56
I just want to say Edgar for Cooperstown -- nm - crash davis Jan 21, 11:56 1
- Duh. -- nm - David Jan 21, 12:05
The rule should be delayed until Bartolo Colon retires. -- nm - spamlet Jan 21, 11:56
Union would be on board becuase it'll increase # of jobs. -- nm - Will Hunting Jan 21, 11:55 15
- Why? A pitcher or bench guy loses his job. Rosters stay at 25. -- nm - iSpam Jan 21, 12:04 2
  - It's commonly assumed that they'll increase the rosters by at least 1 spot in the next CBA - Will Hunting Jan 21, 12:18
  - Yeah, but it's a higher paying position. -- nm - pmb Jan 21, 12:10
- I didn't see your post, obviously I agree. Personally, I don't care for the DH. -- nm - Krusty Jan 21, 11:59 11
  - Anything that lets 9 hitters hit instead of 8 hitters hit and 1 pitcher flail...i"m all for. - Will Hunting Jan 21, 12:00 10
    - I just think it takes a lot of the strategy out of the game. -- nm - pmb Jan 21, 12:04 7
      - it really doesn't though..... - groiny Jan 21, 12:15 4
        
        It takes out the hard choice of pinch-hitting for a pitcher who is pitching well in a tight game. It changes hitting and base-stealling decisions. - pmb Jan 21, 12:18 3
        
        I disagree. - groiny Jan 21, 12:20 2
        
        here's a thought, why not train pitchers to be better hitters? -- nm - znufrii Jan 21, 12:24 1
        
        Too late. -- nm - Spawn Jan 21, 12:26
      - It does but the instant Rufus blew out his achilles running to first, I figured this was inevitable. -- nm - David Jan 21, 12:05 1
        
        Yup. That was the nail in the coffin. -- nm - spamlet Jan 21, 12:08
    - Nine men take the field and those nine men get to hit. If you don't pick up a glove you shouldn't get to pick up a bat. -- nm - Krusty Jan 21, 12:03 1
      - can't we just let the white people bat? -- nm - groiny Jan 21, 12:17
