I propose you can only designate one hitter for one pitcher. Once a player bats for a pitcher, they are attached to that pitcher. If that pitcher goes out, they can't bat again.
Its 4-5 pinch hits a game, a DH specialist would grab 2-3 of them.
You can listen to what Joe Sheehan had to say about this in the link below. He says he would do the deal. I get what he's saying but when he says Gleyber Torres is an overpay and Schwarber is only a slight overpay he loses me.

Yeah and I want a BJ every night, but Im not getting it.
If this were to be a blockbuster deal for Miller, Chapman, and one or two more players.. Definitely trade Schwarber in a mix of players ...
I understand Schwarber had the magic bat last year and the potential but we really don't know what he going to bring to the table when he returns... He not the greatest LFer either, and again who knows how he will return and knees hold up to playing everyday.
I know I'm going to get ragged, but if they can work out a blockbuster trade.. Have to do it

Cause right now, I wouldn't trade Schwarber straight up for a relief pitcher despite how good a reliever he is...'"Have to do a blockbuster"??
Why?
It's about getting needed pieces as economically as possible. Being a "blockbuster" is something only guys like Daniel Snyder care about, if I may cross over to the NFL.
IF a trade makes sense and does involve name players, that's one thing. But to say "if you can make a blockbuster, you have to do it." makes no sense.
are you hallucinating again?Also, its laughable for Miller the way bullpen guys come and go. You remember when Bob Howry and Scott Eyre were going to bring us to the promise land?
How about Carlos Marmol, Greg Gagne, Jonathan Broxton, etc. etc. etc. Relievers are so violatile. Im a believer in not giving up any big pieces for one.
