My thoughts on the new MLB rules:
- Outlawing defensive shifts: dumb as fuck. If they want to put 7 guys in left field, let them. Maybe - just maybe - hitters should learn to hit the ball to both sides of the field.
- Increasing the size of the bases: idiotic. A couple guys got hurt during collisions, and we can't have that, so let's eschew 100+ years of tradition.
- Pitch clock: YES! And even better, the batter can no longer step out of the box and adjust every piece of equipment between every pitch. Make sure you got that velcro secure, right buddy? Might have loosened up since the last pitch. They got this one right.
