There are also a decent chunk of fat slob pitchers.  At least let's watch the fat slobs who can hit.

Ortiz may be fat, but he could hit.

His final season (age 40) he lead the league in 2B, RBI, SLG, OPS, and IBB. Not bad for a fat slob.

Roids.

I'd guess he wasn't using PEDs later in his career.

I wouldn't. VERY easy to beat, STILL. I'd recommend watching icarus if interested.

Actually, we watched that a few months ago. GREAT film.

I believe Ortiz was dirty his final year and many other seasons during his career. But he was lovable so it was ok....I guess.

I would rather see both leagues with the same rule personally.  That's more of a desire of mine than having the DH or not. Eliminate it from the AL. Add it to the NL.  Either one is fine just make it the same.

No doubt.  He was on the mitchell report and he confirmed he was roiding back in 2003.  All of a sudden the dude is 40, fat, and having one of his best seasons?  GTFO.

Yep, it's pretty much a no brainer. Also have you ever heard him talk? It's painful. Almost as painful as his stupid ass manicured beard. Which reminds me of Beckett's shitty soul patch. Has there ever been a more unlikeable team in baseball? Fuckin' A
