By adopting the DH, you lose a ton of strategy involved in the game of baseball. You essentially hire a manager to mange the bullpen and thats it. I really don't understand the desire for the DH, there are 9 players and they should each hit and field. Why doesn't the NBA have a designated 3 point shooter that just runs off the court and switches with a defensive player when possession changes? Or in soccer, you could just run off players when possession changes.
