When the pitcher has to hit the manager has to strategize. Baseball is a cerebral sport. Therrien would be an even worse baseball manager than he is a hockey coach because he can't think on his feet. Part of baseball's charm is watching how moves during the game pan out. You get none of that when you have the DH. You can leave your starting pitcher in for as long as you want without consequences. The DH is about so much more than pitchers taking a turn at bat. Only the most superficial fans see it that way. People who really know the game and appreciate its underlying strategy hate the DH. Chicks may love the long ball but that's only because they don't have an appreciation for the game's finer points. Home runs are the shiny objects that appeal to simple minded fairweather fans. Fans with a deeper understanding appreciate the "inside game": bunting, base stealing, double-switches, etc. That's why the National League is more entertaining. To me, nothing is more boring than spending all your time waiting for a home run to happen.
