Foulke, actually, has pitched very well this season.  Even the best get hit.  Not saying Foulke is "the best" but he is very solid.

The Jays sure are despreate for fans, eh?

I haven't shot you down ever - I'm not looking for a new team just yet.  As long as the Marlins are in FL, I'll be a Marlins' fan. 

However, I can't stand AL baseball.  Pitchers should have to hit.

Yes we are, even though you can argue that we might have a big fan base due to the fact that we are representing an entire country (Canada).

It doesn't have to be an automatic out.  Pitchers should learn to hit.  If hitters can learn to hit, why can't a pitcher spend some time in the cage?

Because hitters spend about 90% of their time learning to hit and 10% learning to field. Pitchers spend about 95% of their time pitching and 5% hitting. It is an automatic out and it is boring. Every now and then you get good hitters like Willis and even Clemens, but they look awkward and it's usually a joke.

Good one.  I agree there.  If you really want to make baseball more exciting, put the DH in both leagues.
