No, the DH is whoever you want it to be for however long you want them there....you can have someone PH for them later like Matt Adams if you want a power bat instead

 

Correct.

 

Another interesting angle to the  DH rule .. if the pinch hitter for the DH takes the field the next inning, then the pitcher has to bat in place of the fielder who was replaced , so you basically lose the DH for the rest of the game.

Yep we want the Yankees to win tonight so that both Cole and Severino get burned in Game 7. For the Astros Verlander wouldn't be available until Game 2 anyway and he has been beat up a couple times this playoffs already, just don't want to have to face Cole potentially three times in one series.

For all people worried about Houston, they were a NL team once so they know that stadium.  Yes, they have Verlander, Cole, and Grienke, but I think the Nats big 3 or big 4 is better than those guys.  I still think the Nats are better and there's something special about this team than years past and they get it done in the WS
