Well I believe there should be a TD Amendment about starting stupid threads.

Neither of us will ever get our wish.

I just wanted to point out how much I hate turf baseball fields. Every time I see one it reminds of the Bull Durham quote.

And if there were no DH we'd have the best hitting pitchers in the nation.

D H in all leagues.
Eliminate Body Armour
Put a 30 second clock behind the catcher for the pitcher
Make the batter stay in the box

Voila.

Designated hitter is an embarrassment to the game of baseball

Specialty closers and relief pickers have changed the game. Nobody wants to see guys batting who have no business batting.

This. Do you really need to step out the box and adjust your gloves because you watched a pitch? I like most of the unwritten rules and quirks of baseball, but this one gets me. It’s like some batters have a 10 step OCD routine.

I don't think the turf has caused our problems this season.

D H helps offense and offset closers. Gotta change the game for entertainment value. Like not letting Drew Brees get touched on his head. Nobody wants to see overmatched guys striking out because they never practice hitting.

The game had a perfectly sustainable entertainment value for YEARS before the DH
