    Fair point, but how many times you seen Chris sale PH in an AL game? Can we call up a HS pitcher if pilk goes down?

    Braves used to use Glavine as PH and Maddux and Smoltz as Pinch Runners regularly.

    Shit! Maddux used to be one of the best, if not the best hitting pitcher in the NL... He could hit a bomb off you in a heart beat!

    Then why didn't he hit on his non pitching days as well? Other players were better hitters overall, that's why.

    I remember that. But hey- what does Bobby Cox know? I'm sure the Braves had someone just as good as those guys at AAA**.
