Event 5

PostWed Aug 18, 2021 10:43 pm

I was just going to start preparing a team for event 5.

Looking through the player cards, I noticed that every pitcher in the 2020 actual set has a '1W' batting rating. Which makes sense as I think that the DH was used in the National league last year.

So - my question is - why do we have an event with no DH in the PC when none of the pitchers actually hit in 2020? It makes no sense.

Wouldn't it make more sense to just make this an 80m DH event? Or perhaps to shake things up a bit, make it a $120m DH event. Or another $60m DH event?

Thoughts?

My initial thoughts were similar to yours Stevep107. :?
Then I started noticing that pitchers can still bat from different sides of the plate and have a variety of bunting skills. Also strategy and personel are differenct for DH vs. Pitchers / Pinch Hitters. Some teams did do a Pitchers Hit League already. So there is a variety of aspects to a winning team conpared to a DH league. It takes a few moments to think differently, but I suppose I'm up for it! :D
