The good:

massive financial growth of the game
wildcard
finally got a good drug rule in place
didn't cave in to the "robot strikezone"
didn't reinstate Pete Rose (because Pete hasn't earned it yet)

the bad:

took too long for drug rules (tho 50% falls on the union)
stupid all star game/home field advantage rubbish
instant replay is a debacle
the 1994 strike


I think that being Commish for so long and growing the game he deserves it, but I can see the argument against him
