zisk Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 On the plus side, our over weight 3rd string catcher could yield us a bullpen arm now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No I think there is a few holdouts in our ranks that prefer a .083 hitter at the 9 spot they know who they are 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

35thstreetswarm Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Fun trivia answer -- last pitcher to bat (at least in the pre-universal DH era)? Kendall Graveman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MiddleCoastBias Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Buehrle gets the love (rightfully) for the HR, but Matt Albers' double and celebration will always hold a special place in my heart. https://www.mlb.com/cut4/white-sox-pitcher-matt-albers-hits-double-and-has-hilarious-reaction-c181541836 https://img.mlbstatic.com/mlb-images/image/private/t_16x9/mlb/w5o8cxzivtbqakqphj0h.mp4 Other than that, good riddance to pitchers hitting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quin Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 I'm drinking so many salty tears right now from friends who were still holding out hope that the DH would actually be abolished. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

napa_soxfan Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Just holy hellfire -- i am so grateful to have some good news, and am downright ebullient about universal DH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoeC Posted March 11, 2022 Share Posted March 11, 2022 Fun idea: Just because there's a DH available, Doesn't mean that you HAVE to have a DH Doesn't meant hat you have to use the DH on the pitcher's spot ...right? So we could theoretically have Cease pitching and batting 9th and use the DH on Mendick (or whoever is manning 2B). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
