1) No DH.

2) Make it more likely that small and mid-market teams can hold on to their home grown talent--players like Fielder and Votto. Don't know how to accomplish this legally or fairly would make the game much better.

3) Give World Series home field advantage to the league that has the best won-loss record in interleague games compiled over the course of the season--not the arbitrary victor of the all star game.

3b) Allow pitchers to throw at batters who gaze wonderously in amazemant at their own home runs and flip their bats at the plate. I guess I don't really believe this but I sure hate it.

1. Alter the stupid rule that says a batter/runner is out who interferes with a thrown ball while on the inside of the firstbase foul line! THAT'S WHERE FIRST BASE IS! (They can fix this by extending first base into foul territory)

2. Charge a sacrifice to a batter who grounds out behind a runner on second with no outs, moving the runner to third, or who allows a runner to tag up from first to second or second to third with a fly ball and no outs.

3. Let Joe Jackson in the Hall, simply because it was a "lifetime" ban, and...ummmm...he's dead.

Default My three wishes

1. Put in an NFL style salary system. No guaranteed contracts, hard salary cap, salary floor, franchise tags, etc. Anybody watch the NFL this year? It's working.
2. Full revenue sharing. Necessary for #1 to work. Also an NFL staple.
3. The DH has got to go. Make managers actually manage a ballgame.

1- Put an MLB club in Portland, Oregon
2- Let into the HOF the iconic players with short careers, ie Maris, Bo Jackson
3- All PHD players get an aterisk. Don't keep them out of HOF, just put an asterisk

1. Give the home field advantage in the World Series to the team with the best regular season record of the two competitors.
2. Cut that gimmicky beard off of that Wilson character
3. Make the first round of the playoffs a best 4 of 7

Along with this rule you could allow batters to charge the mound when pitchers (especially the relievers) overcelebrate their strikeouts...
