Why do we insist on letting a starting pitcher bat?
Because that's the deal with the devil TCU made to get him on campus.
He would only sign with TCU if he could play both ways.
If not DH, where in the heck would you play him? He's big and kind of clumsy. About the only place you could put him on the field is at 1st base...but he's already shown he can't field his position when pitching.
IMHO, we should have recruited that relief pitcher from Wichita State that OSU snagged.
While I'm ranting, on Friday night, what in the heck was our hyperactive short stop thinking when he was doing windmills with his right arm while Tolle was throwing a pitch? Every other TCU player was standing ready in their positions primed to react to any hit ball.
