Huh? It only has upside. Sure teams could find ways to take advantage of it by why not. It's only better when teams are actually at full strength. Sometimes you have to wait several days before you can determine a players injury. Now a team has less fear using the DL knowing they won't be without that player for 2 weeks. How many times last year did we have a short bench because they didn't want to put players on the DL.
