I have a feeling people have not prepared or thought about this rule. And since it was me who pushed for it in the beginning I am just saying that whatever the majority wants is fine with me, and I think the majority is going to be against it, or have not even given it any thought. It most definitely changes the structure of our whole teams.
My original reason for pushing for it, was because it adds more realism, no MLB team has ever made it through a 162 game season with only 24 guys(at least not in the last 50 years). And my thought process was this would make us think more about role players, pinch hitters, defensive replacements,larger bullpens ect., ect. But if half of us are building our teams around the idea that we have to carry 28 players at all times and half of us have no idea that that is even a rule we have a slight problem. It is definitely an advantage to not have to carry 28 -players, that is why I am bringing it to people's attention now,...so some of us do not get burned latter. Like I said, I think the majority should decide.
