I support the DH
My team is an AL team
In fact I would even go so far as to say that the 9 on the Field and the 9 in the lineup shouldn't necessarily correlate at all. I'd be completely fine with every team just putting out their absolute best defensive lineup and best offensive lineup independent of each other.
You know, like football.
I don't want baseball to be football, though. There's nothing wrong with sports having separate offenses and defenses, but I prefer the way the other three big American sports do it. You can put a guy out there who is really good in one area and really bad at everything else, but such over-specialization could end up costing you, and you may have to compensate for that player's deficiencies.
That being said, I do think having separate offenses and defenses is better than just a single DH.
