The Juan Soto sweepstakes have dominated headlines this offseason and we could have a decision from Soto by Monday.

That’s the “Golden At-Bat,” a colloquialism that seems to have taken hold even if the rule change bearing that label never does. In short, it would be the most extreme alteration to the game in an era that’s already seen a pitch clock, mandatory minimums for relief pitchers and extra-inning ghost runners.

What if a team could choose one at-bat to send its best hitter to the plate even if it wasn’t that guy’s turn to hit? MLB could test it out.
