Rob Manfred has shown an aptitude to make drastic changes in the sports since taking over as the Commissioner a year ago in the MLB. The new agenda is to have both the American League and National League playing by the same rules. Purists will hate the adopting the DH, as is their disdain for the Designated Hitter in the AL. They will say they should eliminate that position. There should be no solution but status quo
Rob Manfred gave an interview where some of the slow decisions by baseball made me happy, others did not.

BUT I offer a compromise!
