Everyone in the world disagrees with me, including some managers, but I think managing in the American League is much more difficult for that very reason (having the designated hitter).

You have to know exactly when to take them out of there. In the National League, that's done for you. Jim Leyland
zero taken ecosystems
To achieve true sustainability, we must reduce our "garbage index" - that which we permanently throw away into the environment that will not be naturally recycled for reuse - to near zero.

Organic materials may be disposed into the natural ecosystems, but only in ways that assure that they are absorbed back into the natural production system. David Korten
