When's the last time a LSU pitcher was also in the hitting lineup?

I'm watching the Louisville game and the idea came to mind when I saw their pitcher Brendan McKay hitting as well. None come to mind recently.

Doesnt that louisville kid bat like 340 with a bunch of home runs?

I mean if we have a pitcher that will give you that then id let him bat too. Probably dh games he isnt pitching in.

Blake Dean was a pitcher. Not the answer to your question, but he was a pitcher with a dead arm and a good swing.

Lane Mestepey hit 20 hrs his Sr year in HS and never picked up a bat in college. Sad.

Doesn't make sense risking an arm to run bases. If he's good enough to use on a regular basis, then he's good enough to not be worth the risk.

If he's a backup bullpen guy who is unlikely to see regular action, then sure you can DH him if it's your best option. Or move him into the lineup with the option to move him back into the bullpen if injuries or a lack of production require it.
