1- Get rid of the DH.
2- Eliminate the DH.
3- Do away with the DH.

I would compare the designated hitter to a designated free throw shooter in basketball.

Nice.

I'm in full agreement about the DH, so let me just throw out a few more.

1. Make spring training a Barnstorming Nationwide Secondary City/Capitol Tour

Brewers/Twins in Madison, Marlins/Braves in Tallahassee, etc

2. The first 12 times Zambrano takes the batter's box this year, everybody calls in a closer to put a 4-seamer between his shoulder blades

3. Instead of McCarver and Buck, All ESPN broadcasts are done by Howard Stern and Drunk Rick Sutcliffe

1) tie: no jewelry/beer price cap
2) let the pitchers retaliate (brush-backs ala Gibson,Drysdale)
3) genuine salary cap without the Yankee loophole

[deebro041]

1: No jewelry whatsoever on the playing field
2: Less money, more incentives
3: Move game starts an hour earlier(more day games)

shhh i sneaked in four

Dan, I forgot about that one - it's a biggie for me. I can remember running home from school to catch the start of the '68 World Series games. You played during the day and you slept at night - it made perfect sense.

1) eliminate the DH. Don't you think that doing this would reduce the pressure on position players to perform like DH's (and therefore reduce incentive to use PEDs? just a thought...may not be terribly bright, but it occurred to me and there it is)
2) salary cap would be nice, but I would be in favor of any move that resulted in players moving between teams less,...the resulting increase in actual rivalries might be fun to watch
3) the league that wins the All-Star game no longer gets home field advantage for the World Series, but has the option of sending its actual All-Star team to represent it in the World Series instead of the League champion. Every player in the league that wins the World Series takes home $1 million. The desire to make the All-Star team would be insane!

I really don't see why these things can't happen.
