Hey MLB, Bring The DH To The NL Right Fucking Now

-

At this point if you’re a Chicago Cubs fan and you don’t want the DH in the NL then you’re out of your goddamn mind and don’t want to see the Cubs be more successful. Yeah, it was cute when Jon Lester made Ken Griffey Jr. jealous of his swing after hitting his first career home run earlier in the season, BUT THE CUBS HAVE THE PERFECT DESIGNATED HITTER!

It’s a win-win-win for the Cubs. Kyle Schwarber gets to stay in the lineup as the DH without Joe Maddon having to worry about defense. Maddon gets to put in a better defender and give more playing time to guys like Albert Almora Jr. and Ian Happ.

On Tuesday, Schwarber started against Chris Archer and blasted a solo home run in the second inning, giving the Cubs a 1-0 lead in Tampa Bay.

I know, I know, I know, it’s a small sample size, but Schwarber has shown that he has no problem just coming off the bench as a DH.

Oh and let’s not forget that the Cubs probably don’t win the World Series if it weren’t for Schwarber being the DH in four of the seven games against the Cleveland Indians.

So please, MLB, on behalf of all Cubs fans, (GET ON FUCKING BOARD CUBS FANS) bring the DH to the NL as soon as possible. Thanks in advance Rob Manfred.
