EDIT: One that I do like, the Pawtucket Red Sox moving to Worcester. They will still be the Red Sox, but unofficially the team will be know as the "WooSox." Clever. Cute.

I find it quite fun to be honest

Well, I'm not a complete stick in the mud, as my edit above shows. Say, how about that? Toledo Sticks-in-the-Mud. I can see a snappy logo adapted from this:

If a pitcher is pulled after only seeing 1-2 batters, what's the penalty? I assume there's some time of penalty listed in the fine print of the new rule, but haven't seen it mentioned anywhere yet
Potentially dumb question, I know, but seems like saying "It's just how it is" without a specific penalty is ripe for some teams trying to take some form of astro-nomical advantage with lots of totally legit for real one day injuries Last edited by ezpkns34; 02-13-2020 at 03:06 AM. |

Regarding the 3 batter limit... Get ready for a lot of fake injuries, which in turn wastes time and will defeat the entire purpose of this rule to begin with.

Regarding the new "must face 3 batters minimum" rule - I couldn't find an answer to this in my brief search, so I'll ask here.
You're the manager of team A, you bring in a lefty to face the L/H hitter. The manager of Team B pinch hits for his lefty hitter and brings in a r/h hitter. Does this count as 2 batters faced for the pitcher? |

No. He doesn't face the batter pinch-hit for at all.

I didn’t pay much attention to Aristides Aquinos’ rookie home run streak last season, but boy does he have a fun stance and some power...

So Jose Bautista wants to be a 2 way player at 39 years of age? https://www.mlb.com/news/jose-bautis...out-as-pitcher
I want to see him pitch to Odor. Last edited by Bluenoser; 03-02-2020 at 03:59 PM. |

Watch this for a chuckle:
Mike Trout Hits A Golf Ball Really Friggin’ Far And Twitter Is In Awe https://www.instagram.com/p/B9N-zPiHJCF/ It took me a couple of replays to realize what I was looking at. That's not a putt-putt golf course. It's a driving range and Trout hits the ball over the far barrier net.

I’m glad that Milwaukee is trying to keep a star in this manner. By that I mean signing an established star. Gets old watching all of these guys go to the same 4 markets (approx).

The three batter rule is unnecessary and causes other problems. Get rid of it. Cut the rosters to 24. Problem solved.
