If they get rid of the DH, they should get rid of the AL and NL.
Create 3 Divisions of 10 teams.
12 teams make the playoffs.
Top 4 team gets a bye, Division winners are only guaranteed a playoff spot.
the other 8 play a 1 game playoff, and then you carry on with 7 game series.
Also, Teams should have to carry the same roster between each series in the playoffs.

Get rid of the DH. National League baseball hasn't been played in years. Small ball is dead and the strategy in the NL is negligible.
Black Watch and Hamyltowne, my former usernames, are tartan patterns. Nothing to do with any race or any city.

Great start, get me a universal DH and one trade deadline and I’ll be happy.
