Well, half-standing. (Or is that half-baked?
)
If it is that good of an idea, why isn't it used in both leagues?
Granted, I'm an old fuddy-duddy. I would rather see the decision making process still involved about rather to leave the pitcher in because they're still pitching well, or take them out for a pinch-hitter because the team is behind. What about the double-switch to put that left-handed bat in for later in the game? Or, should the pitcher stay in and sacrafice the runners along? There are so many additional sub-plots involved; I guess I prefer those instead of the simplicity of offense/defense.
