With the recent addition of Manny Ramirez and Johnny Damon, word has leaked that the Devil Rays are planning to soon "field" a new concept, an all DH team. Zip Zimmer would be brought back to manage them. It's a bit of a gamble as it depends on convincing that cutting edge commissioner Bud Selig for permission to pioneer this initiative. They are also quietly acquiring key players like Jorge Posada, Nick Johnson and Mike Lowell. If things don't work out the team would move into an over 40 softball league in Sarasota.
Where are the walkers ? Also, shouldn't Tek be sitting on a Rascal ?
ReplyDeleteIf we're going to have multiple wild card teams why NOT multiple DHs? Like when Ramiro Pena plays one of the infield spots why can't we get to have somebody else bat for him?
ReplyDeleteWho cares about the history and tradition of the game anyway? Just a bunch of us old guys who can't drink beer anymore because of the warning labels on our prescrition meds, so if we stopped watching Bud wouldn't care.
Why not also go to 15 two-team divisions? The 15 division winners and the second-place team with the best record would be seeded into the opening round of the Geico/Coors Light playoffs. We could have the Toyota World Series games scheduled to be played in a domed stadium during the two weeks before the Super Bowl, broadcast exclusively on TBS.
