So I was daydreaming about baseball this morning and thought of that question. Essentially if any pitcher in baseball was to never pitch again and only focus on hitting, which pitcher do you think could make a big league club as a hitter? (Let's assume their defensive ability has no bearing on whether they make the team, just their bat) Explain why you think so. The answer could be 'none', but I would find it hard to believe with how athletic the pitchers are in today's game that none would be able to become a full time hitter.
I don't really get to watch the NL often so I have no clue which pitchers are capable with the bat. I know when I used to watch Sportcenter they always showed Zambrano clubbing' one over the fence (does he play anymore?) and I think I've read on here before that Matt Cain was decent at the plate. That's all I know.
And if anyone has any cards of ML pitchers pictured as a hitter in the batters box or w/e, feel free to show those. That would be neat to see.
