    I have a simple solution to the designated hitter rule in major league baseball: Get rid of the DH, but allow each team to skip the pitcher's spot in the batting order. In other words, the leadoff batter goes to the plate after the #8 hitter. We'd eliminate the pain of watching pitchers bat, while increasing the number of plate appearances that real batters get.
