Don't you get it?

Yes, not using your best hitter so a pitcher can go 0-3 and then get taken out in the 6th because his turn in the lineup is next inning so our best hitter can only get 1 AB only to be taken out again while costing our starting pitcher another inning, thus wasting a bullpen arm. Man, that is some thrilling stuff.

Somebody call the duncanidaho signal. His AL>NL rants are some of the most life-affirming things I've ever read

Hey, don't you go mocking the great strategery of NL ball. It's natural, pure, and the best way to play the game.

That's like saying you'd rather have Alex Smith at quarterback than Peyton Manning in his prime because there's more strategy involved and it takes the game to a whole new level.

ROFL

That is the best analogy I've ever seen.

I would point out that NL baseball is not rocket science to anyone who understands the rules of baseball and has a modicum on ability to think and apply that knowledge to game sitatuions, but you guys have already taken care of that.

It's going to be a glorious day when the Nl joins the rest of the world and no longer sends pitchers up to "hit."
