From what I’ve heard, the DH is going to be universal when the season finally starts. I doubt they bring it to the show this year, but that probably means they add it next year. That means that cards with horrible fielding may finally have value besides pinch hitters. For example, JD Martinez if he gets flashbacks, can finally be used. Or a Miggy or Ruth or many others who are trash in the field, and can be more skillful too with no pitcher that can limit how many runs you put up in an inning
Think of how much good the DH will bring to the show

This would be amazing if they would do that. Yes, it is a pleasure hitting .367 with you starting pitcher, and getting a perfect perfect, but I would much rather use one of my bench players.

On the plus side it will let you use cards that are terrible fielders without worry of them costing you runs and it allows you to not have to choose between say a personal favorite or a card with slightly better stats. I know I come across the latter quite a bit at almost any position.
On the downside, it takes out the only remaining "managerial" skill decision left. They already removed injuries to non-pitchers removing any reason to think about bench construction/roles.

I think they need to add the 26th man to dd in general. Mlb roster size went up, id love an extra bench/ bullpen guy.
And i fully support the dh, i like the nl style and strategies involved but there are way to many great hitters i dont get to use at all and would like another way to get in my lineup somehow
