Yeah, but even in NL parks a lot of times the DH will still play a position and a lesser batter will sit. And the lesser batter still makes a better pinch hitter than an NL batter because he's had more at bats during the season. Pitcher batting comparisons are pretty much meaningless because NL pitchers don't really bat that often and half the time it's bunting anyway. So a guy hitting .089 is better than a guy hitting .069 isn't too big of a deal. That's just the way I see it.
