MLB rule proposals

#1 Post by BackInTex » Wed Feb 06, 2019 2:34 pm

Some proposed new rules

Some of the more dramatic changes include a:
1) universal designated hitter (O.K.)
2) three-batter minimum for pitchers (YES! But with an "or" end the inning)
3) 20-second pitch clock (what's the penalty when it's the pitcher, and what's the penalty when it's the batter, and how is that decided?)
..what country can preserve it’s liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? let them take arms.
~~ Thomas Jefferson

War is where the government tells you who the bad guy is.
Revolution is when you decide that for yourself.

Not a rule, but Major League Baseball is changing the name of disabled list to ‘injury list’.

That apparently won over "sissy list".

I like the three batter minimum. I think it will both speed up the game and increase scoring. Both good for the fan.
I felt the change

Time meant nothing and never would again
