| Feel free to post proposed rule changes below. Any proposals will be discussed and then voted on at some point in the offseason, with each 2016 team getting one vote.
I have one to start:
1. In lieu of a coin toss to decide home/away, the home team would be decided beforehand such that each team will be have an equal number of home and away series on the season. If that is accepted, we could choose one of two formats:
a. The format remains similar to now the team which is home in first game gets to set the pitching matchup. That team is then the visitor in Game 2.
b. There is a true home team, that is the same team is home in both games. We could then choose which team has to declare their pitcher first. It might make sense if the home team sends their first pitcher out to the mound, giving that power to the visiting team.

| I prefer alternating home/visitor on the same day. With only a couple games against each team in the regular season, it would really give a matchup advantage to the home team. This is if I'm understanding your proposals accurately.

| Last year I remember discussing changes to the strike zone and whether it should be lowered or shortened (with the bottom height staying the same). Is that idea still in discussion?
