Personally, I find the DH to be an inocuous part of the game as far
as tradition goes.  It changes the game less then say the advent of
artificial turf and symmetrical stadiums.  Also from the standpoint 
of being a fan I enjoy watching Don Baylor come up four times a game
then Ron Darling slash away twice before being pinch hit for.  A
poll is reasonable, but the topic is worthy of discussion too.  It
seems that with the new commissioner the fans may have some say in this
decision, and that should elevate the value of this topic in the net's
eyes.
