I have been reading this thread again and it just cracks me up. There is no chance, none, zero, absolutely impossible, etc., etc. of ever getting rid of the DH. And honestly, as a whole baseball fans prefer the DH game. Most fans would rather see Ortiz bat than a guy who has as much chance of hitting the ball closing his eyes than leaving them open.

The more strategy argument just does not hold the test of validity. In truth strategy is in many ways higher when you do not have an automatic out in the lineup.

I love reading the arguments thou.... it amazes me how vigorously some people argue a point that is 100% unsupported by fact (look at the HBP numbers/argument above).

Bottom line, the few remaining holdouts (NL) will adopt the DH within a short period of time. There are too many "discussion" taking place in MLB for this not to occur. Unfair advantages to the NL in interleague and world series games, injury to pitchers who are vastly becoming an extremely protected commodity, etc.
