    MLB implemented the universal DH ..... SDS has it used in offline modes (MTO, RRTS & Franchise) ..... But not online DD with any of the modes. Not even Mini or VsCPU

    WHY NOT ?????

    I personally prefer to use a DH in DD Online modes or atleast have the option of using a DH if I am the home team & have my preffered line-up with DH & my secondary line-up being defaulted to "no DH" if my online opponent is the home team & his preffered line-up is "no DH". Basically how the preffered options for ballpark, time, month, weather & presentation is in favor of the home team.

    Like to hear who is in favor of this & as well against this & why.

    Probably because it simply would be a lot of work to redo content, cards like Shohei Ohtani would need to be editted and they didn't have enough time because while the DH was rumored for awhile, it wasn't official until very very late

    Why does this question need to be asked every other day? Is your team really that bad that you absolutely NEED the DH?

    I'm all for the DH in real baseball, and I would be okay with it if SDS adds a DH in future games. However, if 8 superstar diamond hitters aren't enough for you to get some offense going, the 9th one isn't going to help.

    I’d love it in DD just because it lets you use another player more regularly. It would add a lot more value to guys like Nelson Cruz.

    I would appreciate the DH in DD for this reason. Guys like Cruz or J.D. Martinez with outfield primaries and terrible defense/ speed have been stuck on the bench outside of BR for years. It would be nice to throw them into the lineup every once in a while. Besides that, I'm happy enough with the way it works now.

    Its not that. I just prefer the DH rule overall. Always have, way way before SDS, EA, 2K or any1 else made any baseball video games. Now that it is univseral for both leagues, I just feel SDS sould put the DH in DD online or atleast to have the home team use a DH if thats in thier game settings.

    I don't buy it. These people create fake cards weekly. SDS just being hardheaded. Changing the rules to benefit them.

    Why would it benefit them by not making you account for another starter? Why would it benefit them at all?

    I forgot to mention that if they do introduce a DH for DD in the future, I hope they add a stamina system for position players. Nothing crazy, but after a certain number of games (not sure of the number, but maybe around 10-15) they could receive a minor downgrade to attributes until they take a game off. Maybe you could use the DH spot for a half day to recover some stamina. That way the bench doesn't become completely useless.

    That would be a great thing if done now. It will prevent many from sticking to the same cards that literally rakes for them & force them to use cards that dont. Espeacilly with those who love to stockplie on cards with 90+ speed to play a running cheese bunt & SB tactic every game.

    It's called being lazy. If it's in the game, its in the.... wrong company.

    Why do you need a DH in DD? -- Because those the rules of baseball. I cannot believe how many people are making excuses for SDS - The universal DH was in the news for months as a probability -- if you want to be considered a serious game, you follow the sport and prepare for its rule changes....
    They put in ghost runners and reliever requirements instantly -- this should have been no different.

    Ask yourself why it was....

    So why not add more to the "fantasy" with using a DH ????

    Things that make you go "hhhmmmm"

    Like why do we park in a driveway, but yet drive on a parkway ?????

    HHHMMMMM

    I can guarantee you they don't make fake cards weekly, those are all planned out way ahead

    My thoughts exactly. I like that MLB has it now. But in DD it would kinda suck. We are gonna have some pretty stacked teams real fast and I want to be able to utilize my bench and be forced to take out my SP and maybe go to BP if I need a bat in a key moment. With a DH I would hardly ever use my bench or my BP.

    and when exactly was the game designed and built? Oh yeah in May many months before DH became anything more than a rumor.by the time the lockout had happened this game was 7 months in the oven already.
