| What?! The DH is a big part of what makes the American League the best. No one wants to watch a pitcher with a .110 batting average embarass himself. |

By the way, CC Sabathia is probably a better hitter than most teams' 7-9. Micah Owings, Mike Hampton, Matt Cain, Brad Penny, Livan Hernandez... There are plenty of pitchers out there who can hit. It is pure and right and good. |

I suppose that means that the conversation will continue for all time.
