    Universal DH in 2019

    According to Rosenthal, that had been proposed by the players union

    A universal designated hitter — something the players have sought for more than three decades, according to commissioner Rob Manfred — also was part of the union’s proposal. Under the plan, the National League would adopt the DH for the 2019 season.

    The owners want to institute a rule where a pitcher must face a minimum of three batters.

    Players say they want the DH in both leagues, as well as, a team to lose better draft benefits for losing so many games by a specified year

    A lowering of a team’s draft position for failing to reach a specified win total in a certain number of seasons is believed to be part of the union’s plan.
