DH coming to the national league at the end of collective bargaining agreement next year.

Radio just said momentum is moving that way.

Meh.

That's dumb.

Your thread title makes it sound like it's a done deal. Your content has me skeptical. Don't tease me.

The National League and their no dh rule is dumb and they should be ashamed of themselves. It would be a good move.

I disagree with you Travis, therefore, I hate you.

I don't like the DH but I just think both leagues should be the same. One way or the other.

Keep it as is. I like the leagues being different.

I wish it was the other way around. I enjoyed the NL game a lot better.

Terrible and you're wrong and you should be ashamed of yourself.

I am ashamed but I can't change how I feel, Travis. And since I "feel" this way you need to accommodate my feelings. Get with the times.

I'm not accommodating shit. If it were up to me the government would round up and arrest everyone that likes the National League rules and put them into a work camp until they embrace the DH or die.

Your microaggressions are very triggering, Travis.

Personally, I think the DH is pussy. Pussy pussy pussy.

Agree 100%.

Too many people are in love with scoring/hrs/slam dunks/touch down passes/posterizing a player/etc.

Getting rid of the pitcher hitting will be a sad day for baseball.

This, a lot less strategy involved when the pitcher doesn't hit (just get rid of the manager while you're at it), but I guess that appeals to the more simple minded.

That's bullshit that is trumpeted by national league apologists. it's simply not true.

I don't have time for that right now, but the "there is more strategy in the national league" is an out and out lie and anyone who says it should be ashamed of themselves. There are different strategies.

1-1 in the 8th. Hot pitcher coming to bat with a man on second 2 outs.

That's when it's tough.

You've shamed me enough today, Travis. I will not stand for this mistreatment!

Switches, double switches, and pinch runners make the game more exciting and add a layer to the game that wasn't there before and if you don't like that well........ I don't know but if I think of something very insulting I will make sure to post it later.

Travis is a poop head.

I understand that. What I take issue with is the national league propagandists (liars is probably a better word) implying that there isn't significant strategy in the American League because of the DH.

Hell, they probably only got to 1-1 in the eighth in the national league because they were handed 3 free outs per team leading up to that point.

I will send you a supply kit when you are in national league death camp. Good luck to you.

You're absolutely correct. Managers have tough decisions with the DH, like, 'my pitcher just gave up three hits in a row, do I pull him for a righty or a lefty and where are we drinking after the game?'
