Are you a baseball traditionalist?

I hate interleague baseball.
I hate the thought of bringing the DH to the NL.
I hate the arbitration rules that keep the best players in the minors too long so they avoid Super Two status.
I do, however, love sabermetrics .

I have no problem with interleague - it was nice when it didn't happen every other weekend though and they kept it to three or four series per season.

I want balls and strikes determined by a guy reading the pitch f/x tracker, frick umps.

I just hate baseball period.

Hate inter league, hate the DH.
I do like how sabermetrics have forced people to look at the game in a new way.

Nope the more change the better. Balls and strikes need to be called by a robot or something.

I love sabermetric but strongly oppose the DH coming to the NL. The only thing im really traditionalist about

I'm so traditional that I'd like to see the regular season go back to 154 games. The addition of playoffs (which did not exist when I was a kid) has pushed the season too far into cold weather.

I enjoy watching baseball, but I can't stand "baseball people." The kind of people who are fans of the "unwritten" rules of baseball, the idea of "first ballot guys" and those who didn't want instant replay because it wasn't part of The Game.

Don't mind interleague.
Don't want the DH in the NL. I think pitchers should hit. The Dodgers have always been my favorite team. I remember that Don Drysdale was used as a pinch hitter pretty often. Plus, it forces managers to use a bit of strategy. Fister was great at the plate last night. His two sacrifice bunts resulted in runs for the Nats.
I am more of a traditionalist. As Crash Davis said, "I believe there ought to be a Constitutional Amendment outlawing AstroTurf and the designated hitter."

The DH is one of the worst things to ever happen to America. Worse than even Obamacare.

Can someone explain to me the problem with inter-league play? Is it because of DH (or no DH) and road teams having to adjust?

I liked the idea if inter league when it started, now it is just part of the overall game. I think it has diminished the All-Star game to a degree though.
I love the DH actually it has allowed me to see some great players continue their careers.

I don't mind interleague, but I wish teams played other teams in their league more often. I don't like the Cubs only making one trip to all cities not in the central.
I wouldn't mind the DH in the NL. I understand people like more strategy, but I get tired of watching pitchers bunt or K in almost every AB. I also hate to see a pitcher pulled in the 5th or 6th just because the manager wants a PH.
I love sabermetrics.
I think replay is good. They're getting more calls right. How could that be bad?
