PHOENIX -- Monday was media day for the 15 Cactus League teams, with managers and general managers meeting in one reasonably central location — the Arizona Biltmore hotel — led off by commissioner Rob Manfred addressing many topics.
There has been some talk this offseason regarding the designated hitter eventually coming to the National League, and with the current Collective Bargaining Agreement set to expire in December the DH has been viewed by some as a potential negotiating point.
But commissioner Manfred dismissed such rush to judgment on Monday, calling himself "a status quo" guy who likes to keep the leagues the way they are.
