So. What kind of insider baseball stuff that I missed out on makes it so complicated and difficult for a manager to decide whether to pinch-hit for his starter in the 6th inning? When to bring the infield in? When to pitch out? This is not rocket science stuff. A high school football coach has to deal with more complicated tactical decisions than a major-league baseball manager. |
Maybe an American League manager. American League baseball is not real baseball. You are correct, it takes almost every element of managing out of the game due to the DH.
