He's dh'ing for heyward.


I know you're joking, but I would absolutely rather Lester and Arrietta hitting than Heyward. And Maddon I said just crazy enough to do it. I don't think he will, but I'd love to see it.

You can't DH for anybody other than the pitcher. You could play without the DH and have the pitchers hit for themselves, but you can't DH for a position player other than the pitcher.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but I don't see the reasoning behind this rule at all. We did it in high school and American Legion ball all the time. We never had a pitcher who could hit worth a shite in college, so I don't know about that. Obviously, MLB is different, but it seems obvious that it would be much less advantageous in MLB. So I'm not sure why the need for the rule.

In that same game thread, someone posted the actual verbiage of the rule that says it.

Don't know why you are asking on here, I'm sure 90% of the Cubs "fans" haven't heard of him.

just made a little prop bet that Schwarber would hit the first HR in game 1!

$21 pays $630!!

It would be awesome
