If MLB was smart, they would make a rule change where a pitcher could stay in at DH. They have a rising superstar in Ohtani. He has generated interest in baseball, even to non-baseball fans. It doesn’t really help them to have him on the bench just because he has a bad start. How many people have now stopped watching the game cause Ohtani is no longer playing? Sure, it does give the Halos an immense advantage. But, I’m certain that other teams will soon develop some amazing 2-way players in the future. And, they can take advantage as well
If they’re gonna have this silly extra inning rule where the inning starts with a runner on 2nd, they can do this. And, it will help them in the long run.
