Boooooooooooooooo. Less strategy is always a bad thing.

Such strategy by the Manager....

Maybe the NFL should require kickers to play offense and defense.

Josef K

Maybe the point guard shouldn't be allowed to play on offense. I mean, "guard."

That would certainly add more strategy.

Josef K

That would be awesome. More Hunter the Punters please

But what about the ‘double switch’ such an intricate part

That REALLY sucks if true.

Maybe they can also get another guy to stand on the mound to be the designated fielder.

Can't stand the AL because of the DH, what a joke.

As a casual fan at best, I’d rather see electronic strike zones than that.

The ONLY way I'd consider an NL DH anything other than an embarrassment is if

I like the DH, but I also liked the difference between the leagues. Provided for fun banter. And despite most pitchers

Don't like it. I think the NL has more strategy and more late-game excitement.

It ends where every league that exists (other than the NL) agrees it should end, the pitcher.

Exactly, it's one of nine players, hitting averages are so low anyway it
