both sides are trying to manage their pitching staffs and not run out of pitchers but still try to win the game. The DH reduces that drama and tension considerably. Call me old school. Hate the one dimensional AL DH types.

I’m baffled by how many people don’t like the idea of DH in the NL

This^ The NL has so much more strategy that the AL just get rid of by using a DH

It's the strategy of debating whether or not to pitch hit, how long the pitcher

I don't like taking a pitcher out of the game simply because he is about to

extra inning games are way more intense when the pitcher must work for every out

Right, because they don’t pinch hit for the pitcher in those situations.

The AL averages just 2.8% (4.59 vs 4.46) more runs per game than the NL

I hate the DH in the AL. I don’t want it in the NL.

I hate the DH. It should go away in both leagues.

They like the balance that not having a DH. And where do they get that balance? I can tell you in one word ...

The DH is for the same crowd that thinks pitch trackers which obscure my view
