MLB General Discussion (Official Thread)

3-2 counts don't bother me at all. What I couldn't stand was batters stepping out after every pitch, adjusting their gloves, slowly stepping back in only to ask for time if the pitcher held in the set position for 3 seconds. When that wasn't happening the pitcher would take a walk behind the mound, rubbing the ball, only to get back on the mound and throw it to first 5 times to hold the runner.

None of that BS happens now. At bats move at a steady pace and the stolen base in back. I'm happy with the changes.

Faster pace hasn't fixed the mundanity, tedium or predictability.

If you have Cruz on your fantasy team it looked bad. He needed help getting off the field. As a Pirates fan, I expect the worst.
