    Pitchers batting is stupid.  End of story.

    You enjoy an inferior brand of baseball, Cliff......not that there's anything wrong with that.
    Inferior baseball is watching a dipshit try to get down a bunt looking like it's the first time he held a bat.  I prefer taters.
    an AL manager could fall asleep on the bench during games and no one would notice. their job pretty much stops once they hand in a lineup card.




    Good thing we watch baseball for the players then, not the managers.

    The over exaggeration on this page is really astounding...  In the regular season, I agree there's not a ton of in game management, but in the playoff there definitely is.  But at the end of the day, who the fuck cares?  For me, the question is whether the game is better or worse.  And pitchers hitting are shitty.  

    THAT'S.

    BASEBALL.


    You just don't like the sport as much as us NL enthusiasts do.

    the only game management decisions in the AL playoffs is when to make a pitching change. and that decision is far easier in the AL than in the NL.  i don't think that can even be disputed.

    also i prefer a game of strategy not just sitting back watching what occurs. i like poker far more than playing high card wins.

    Or you could argue that we like the sport so much we like to see it played at a high level.

    Barreling over defensive players in the baselines and hard slides were essentials taught since little league.

    I'm one rule away from saying, "Fuck this game!" Actually, I might already be there. It's just a prolonged and difficult breakup from the love of my life.

    bad analogy for you Cliffy.   i love playing both games but i can play blackjack in my sleep or completely wasted which i have done many times. poker needs a shit load more concentration.  Also since blackjack is not on TV and poker is, wouldn't that lead rational people to believe poker is more interesting to watch? hmmm yes yes it would...

    Great analogy.  Point being just because you have to think about something, doesn't make it better.

    You must be 60 because I played into college..and I'm 44... and if you barreled a player when I was playing, you were ejected.  The leagues I played were Hot Stove, AABC, and Connie Mack.  These were not pussy leagues.

    Really?

    I'm 39 and played until college and we could barrel into catchers all throughout high school and legion if the opportunity presented itself (it was a rare occurrence). But I even remember a friend of mine absolutely destroying a catcher in a Babe Ruth game when we were like 13 or something and everyone went crazy like it was one of the best plays ever. We still bring that up whenever we see each other. He wasn't ejected.
