I voted for getting out of the way. Too many MLB players have had broken wrists from being hit by a pitch. Heck, I got hit catching for my daughter a week and a half ago on my big toe. The pitch was a 46 MPH change-up that missed my mitt and shin guards. My toe is most likely broken, so I can't see deliberately sticking a body part in the path of a 60+ MPH pitch coming at me.
