Mike,
I'd actually like to see the DH disappear from softball & have all the sanctioning bodies use the DP/DEFO. It's not that hard a rule to understand - once we stop trying to make it difficult (at least, that was my problem in understanding it). And it's such a flexible position that I think it's the most potent position in the book.
Personally, I'd like to see all of the CS rules dropped. Field nine, bat same nine. Field ten, bat same ten. I'm all for participation, but for God's sake, let's stop diluting the game.

If the "participation factor" is so important to the teams, just allow free substitution and quit keeping score. Play 7 innings and go out for pizza and your favorite liquid refreshment.

That will never happen in this country. Too many egos and not enough intelligent human beings to let that happen.
