Psst...you can pinch-hit a bench scrub for a DH. Pass it on.
Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well

per @Buster_ESPN, “unless the MLB and players' union animus erupts to the point of complete dysfunction”, the NL will readopt the DH for 2021

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

Honestly, I love the Dodgers and I'm glad they won the World Series, but they shouldn't be able to play 700 ball on cruse control after giving away three starting pitchers and having another one opt out.

MLB instructed clubs in a memo last week to proceed under the assumption the DH will not be used in the NL this year, though few will complain if the league and union reach agreement to the contrary.

RIP Dodgers

This is easily fixed though, the Dodgers can just name a pitcher as their DH if they want. That way their fans get to continue watching excrement batters and convincing themselves it's strategic.

I'm not sure what the point of linking that article is but it's terrible, as it a) contains so many errors I'm fairly sure that the person writing it doesn't actually watch soccer, and b) there's no way that list makes sense if it doesn't contain Andrea Silenzi.
