A pitcher SHOULD bat, even though they almost uniformly stink. However a good bunting pitcher can make a big difference.

And a GOOD HITTING pitcher can be worth his weight in gold.

I couldn't care less about the argument that the DH keeps older, slower pitchers playing longer. It sucks and it takes a lot of the strategy of the grand old game away from the managers.

I will be PISSED if the NL ever adopts the DH, or if the league ever changes the rule on them.

My DBacks have the best hitting pitching staff in baseball. Opposing teams can’t count on an easy out when the Pitcher walks into the batters box.
