NL baseball is so much more interesting, there is a lot more strategy involved, and a pitcher who is worth his salt can move runners at least via a sac bunt. And I don't buy for a second the argument that it will speed up the game, anyone who has watched AL baseball knows those morons have to spend way too much time leaving the box and readjusting their stupid batting gloves after each pitch while the pitcher for some unknown arcane reason needs to leave the mound and walk around as well. And pitchers not batting will still get injured sometimes - arm injuries, batted ball injuries, injuries incurred while fielding.

Keep baseball the way it is meant to be played -

But 99.9% of all other pitchers can't hit worth shit. El Supremo Jan 2016 #8

That's because pitchers that can actually hit generally get moved to the field Brother Buzz Jan 2016 #9

Didn't you just make an argument FOR the DH? El Supremo Jan 2016 #11
