[QUOTE="South Farms, post: 1452643, member: 590046"] I'm so torn on the DH change. I want the offense, but am so much going to miss the NL style of pitching changes, double switches, etc, when you get to the 6th and 7th innings. But it is coming. No doubt about that. I hate the 3 batter minimum idea and I hate the limit on defensive switches. Leftys (I am one) need to learn to be able to hit the ball the the other side for the automatic (okay 70% rate) single/double and the shifts will change. I mean, whats next, limiting infielders from moving up to stop a bunt? Automation of the strike zone not only should happen, it must happen. Sure 90%-95% of them are called correctly, but those 5%-10% that aren't can make a huge difference. I'm tired of seeing 2 or 3 pitches called incorrectly every half inning. Get a pitch clock and limit a batter from stepping out of the box after every pitch. That's where you speed up a game. [/QUOTE]
