    MLB All Star Game - This time it counts for all the teams?

    MLB wants the All-Star game to mean something. Well, OK, but many don't care to mess with the World Series.

    How about this approach?

    1) Make all interleague games immedietely follow the All-Star game.
    2) The winning league of the All-Star game has its rules adoped for all Interleague games. (DH/no DH)
    • The fans would be prodded to vote the best players from their league in.
    • The players would take the game more seriously.
    • The managers would take the game more seriously.
    • No team would be materially disadvantaged.*
    • It would restore a bit of the NL/AL rivalry.
    *The AL teams might grouse a bit about their DH being forced to play the field or sit, but it'd only be for a few games and it would be league-wide.

    So the NL would get to DH since the NL cant seem to win a flipping All star game anymore.
