.@Jimmy_J_Nelson left tonight's game for precautionary reasons with right arm soreness. #MILatChC

 

I've long been a fan of traditional BB, but I think its time for the DH... Just too much specialization in the game anymore.

 

That and Ryan Braun as a DH is probably a benefit for the next 3 years.

Anderson and Guerra earlier in the year. Pitchers shouldn't be batting.

At the very least, it should not be different rules for different leagues. There's no logic that AL teams should not have the same risks for their pitcher that NL pitchers do as long as both leagues are competing for the same trophy.

 

And yeah having Braun to DH the next few years would be a big benefit.

Strange to walk Arcia there

 

Cubs were trying to coax counsel into pulling hader for ph.

 

Curious as to how often an intentional walk is issued with the bases empty. It has to be extremely rare even for the best of the best hitters.

They basically did it to Braun right there, the old unintentional intentional all pitches low and away walk
