Not to mention, not having a DH takes all the thinking out of the game. Everybody sitting at home knows what the manager is going to do and when he's going to do it long before it happens. The DH forces managers to make tough decisions with their pitchers and their bench.

What decisions does a manager make with his pitchers when it comes to the DH? None. His job is much easier because he can manage his bullpen and pitchers much easier.
To each his own, but strategy does not make a mockery of the game. It adds to it if anything.
