Foltynewicz, Newcome and Anabel Sanchez:

Giving up a ton of ABs!

Your stats above show just how overblown the DH discussion is. Using the Braves stats as your example pitchers hit fewer than 2 times per game. Do we really need to eliminate the primary source of strategy in the game for 2 better at bats?

I’d prefer to eliminate the DH altogether but the Players Union would never allow it.
