MLB has their heads up their a**es.

They need to have the same rules for each league. Having different rules means they're not playing the same game. Either go with the DH for everyone or no one. I for one don't care which they pick but they need to pick one.

The All-Star game is an exhibition between the best players in the game, nothing more. Having it count for something is possibly the worst idea Selig has ever had and that's saying a lot.

As long as we are tweaking the game. I always thought a game based hugely on stats and all the parks having different dimensions was stupid. -- nm - Bacon Jul 4, 13:35 5
- "Based hugely on stats"? I don't even know what that means. - musubi Jul 4, 13:39 2
  - Stats are used by fans to compare players. 60 home runs is better than 50. If the guy hitting 60 has an outfield 10 feel shorter than the other guy. - Bacon Jul 4, 13:44 1
    - You can look at home/road splits, and there are park factors that adjust. - musubi Jul 4, 13:49
- Heh. I'm not trying to tweek the game, I'm trying to bring it back to they way it used to be. - Krusty Jul 4, 13:38 1
