“Say, why don’t we have a three-year experiment where the American League does away with the DH? That sounds better to me.”

A this stage,asking a pitcher who hasn’t hit a baseball since 3rd grade to go up against a 90mph fastball is dangerous.

Get rid of DH. If you can’t get in the batter’s box, you won’t pitch.

And yet it's done every season. So why are not pitchers getting injured all the time from interleague play?

If you followed high school baseball, you'd realize that many pitchers are often among the best hitters on the team and often play first base or the outfield when they are not pitching.
