DH vs DP/Flex

[Dakota]

As was stated, except for the way the lineup card is filled out, the DP can be used exactly like a DH in practice.

DP = player you would have called the DH. Put her where you want her in the lineup.

FLEX = your pitcher. Put her in the #10 spot.

Then, DP always bats and FLEX always pitches.

Just like DH.

Simple.

Answer to the coach's question is, "Yes, coach, but you have to call your DH a DP and you have to list your pitcher in the #10 spot in the order and call her the FLEX. Everything else can be done identically to the way you used to coach with a DH."
