Why is there no DH
-
I’m a fan of AL baseball but the NL rules make DD work and play much better. I think adding a DH to DD would be a mistake. It would essentially make the bench useless NL rules require more strategy in DD later in games.

a DH means no need for a bench, play Alonso at first
I'm ready for the full roster having energy we need to manage. That would allow the DH to be viable plus make benches matter way more. I'm sure a lot of people would hate it but it adds more strategy to roster construction which is the best part of DD.
Or at least add a Hardcore Mode that's higher pitch speeds and full stamina management. I would love it, personally.
I disagree on stamina, if I’m eventually going to pay 200k for a player I expect to be able to use them every game

That's why I'd prefer just a Hardcore mode or something for people that wanna play it. I like having choices not being forced into playing a certain way. Could even then build a team for normal Ranked and a separate Hardcore team or something.

they must be national league guys.
DH is probably coming to the NL in 2022 so wait til then.
They are in San Diego! That's why they are called San Diego Studios! San Diego is a NL town!

I personally think that there should be a "hardcore mode" in Ranked season but not because of that. I think to reach everyone in the game, you need a different skill area and that way the people that like the higher difficulties and pitch speeds could just play there and other could play in a lower area that still allows for smaller rewards and almost like a trainer for the big leagues in ranked seasons

Simple NL bias from Padres fans. No other explanation. Literally only 15 professional teams in the entire world DON'T use a DH.
They'd probably refuse to vote for any player in their first year of HOF eligibility too.

I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case.
pretty much a foregone conclusion with the CBA negotiations that are gonna take place after this season

Higher pitch speeds?! What prescription you on!?

Yo SDS,
A DH means an extra batter. An extra batter= more stubs needed to buy a good [censored] batter. But some batter sare hella expensive so that will equal more revenue for y’all.
So add a DH so I can use Pete Alonso there thanks my guys
Baseball is much more strategic without the DH.

Dom Smith needs to play 1B, he's not an outfielder.
DH Pete. LFGM -
I hope they never add the DH to DD. Totally unnecessary.
