If that was someone elses idea earlier, I apologize.
I like this thought and to expand it a little, only 10 games, instead of 20, need played at a position the previous year to qualify for that position.
If we can't fight these injuries through expanding a roster, increasing flexibility in those rosters could be the key and be of help.

Now, how do we help all those with injured pitchers.... :D
these are good ideas, especially the 10 game one.

In no particular order of preference:

1) Ben Gay
2) Mineral Spirits
3) Oysters
4) Public Execution
Baseball is a slow, boring, complex, cerebral game that doesn't lend itself to histrionics. You 'take in' a baseball game, something odd to say about a football or basketball game, with the clock running and the bodies flying.

I am not sure Viagra would help, but OK, if it works for you! :D ;)
