[QUOTE="eMitch, post: 1452475, member: 4793"] I agree with the goal, but I don't really care for any of those changes, especially the 3 batter minimum or preventing defensive shifts. And any rule suggested for fantasy play should disqualify you from being commissioner ever. The BIGGEST improvement that can be made and is absolutely necessary is automating balls/strikes. Umpires simply miss too many. Even if the technology now is not 100% (if not, it's really close) it's definitely better than the umpires. It could be improved by requiring that every batter be measured before he's allowed on the roster and the zone can be adjusted for each player. You could give the home plate umpire a buzzer to signal strikes and the change wouldn't even be noticeable. [/QUOTE]
