Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 2636226, member: 652"] Your giving an out almost every time every 3 innings. Pitchers don't/shouldn't need a breather inning. In the steroid era where hitting was off the deep end okay but not now. We are in the Pitching Era right now. Sport could use a little more offense IMO. If a pitcher can hit do what the Angels were doing with Ohtani. DH him when he isn't starting. Pinch hitting is always used in late games in the AL as well. I just don't want to give pitchers anymore breaks. NL pitchers ERAs IMO are inflated by atleast .33 earned runs because of the lineups having a weaker 8th hitter and pitcher's spot. Schwaber is a prototype player in the AL who would be better if he could mix in some DHing as he has to play LF because of the Cubs having Rizzo at 1b. [/QUOTE]
