Best hitting active pitcher?

[Kingctb27]

I'd also say Mike Hampton is the best active pitcher. Doesn't seem to have much overwhelming competition, either.

Maybe one day it will be Rick Ankiel.

does ankiel qualify as a pitcher?

Well, he does this year but after this year he loses his yahoo eligibility.

Definitely Hampton... but I think Livan is in second place, for the time being. I'd lean toward Jennings, but playing in Colorado helps pitchers' hitting stats, too.

Wood good but can't last more than one Ab this year. Hampton good. Backe in HOu was an OF til few years ago. Should be good for .200+. C Zambrano been hot so far.

i dont have any stats on this but im pretty sure that woody williams is a good hitter... but yeah hampton is the best

Yeah, he is. Career .216 hitter with 3 HR and 35 rbi in less than 400 at bats. Not bad for a pitcher.

i am sure the cardinal fans in this cafe could provide the #s but i think jmarquis hit.300 last year and he has quite a few rbis this yr

[matmat]

marquis hit well last year and is doing so this year.

hampton had 6f .300+ years in his career and is hitting .350+ this year

livan hernandez hit .300 once and came close once.

woody williams hit .300 once, came close another time and is hitting over .300 this year.

willis is doing OK for himself, but not really as well as the other giuys.

Wes Obermuller for the Brewers is a career .288 hitter in 66 AB.

Another Brewer pitcher who could hit was Brooks Kieschnick a P/PH. Doesn't look like he's active this season though. Brooks had some power and never got cheated at the plate. Brooks has a career .248 ave - .760 OPS - 16 HR in 306 AB

Can you tell I'm a Brewer fan...
