What do yall think about the new MLB Pitch Clock

[Juggalo Fred]

We still watching big beefy men hold big sticks in their hands and hitting balls?

You'd rather watch guys run around holding balls or dribbling them?

 

[Ya Sinning Mane]

Na thats way too fast. Gonna blow out some arms like that.

Use your bench and it’s no problem

 

[Paper Boi]

baseball is never gonna come back as national TV product unless they man up and let players use PEDs

so fukk it

should just let it be what it been, it's still popular on local markets for the home team

 

[WhatsGoodTy]

It’s way too fast you barely got time to look over at a runner at 1st and 2nd. As soon as that ball gets back to the pitcher he better know what pitch he wants to throw.

 

[Won Won]

so what happens if batter steps out of the box and is granted time ? clock starts over ?
what about pickoffs ? we finna see pickoff spam just to prolong the pitch clock ?

lots of edge cases here I think

There’s a new pickoff rule, can only step off or throw over twice. If you attempt a 3rd, and don’t get the runner out, they advance a base

 

[PortCityProphet]

That shyt wack.
Seems rushed. Starters only gonna go like 4 innings. A lot of the strategy in baseball is in the set up. A lot of the anticipation is in the set ups.
Its gonna make playoff baseball feel weird less climatic.
Doesn't feel like baseball.

 

[UpAndComing]

Shoulda been done years ago. Absolutely love it.

I like it. Might actually make me start watching Baseball

 

[Heelmatic]

I’d bump it up to 20 seconds after watching the video, maybe 25. 15 seconds is a little quick.

Man stolen bases are going through the roof this year.

 

[TheGreatShowtime]

It's a good concept that can and should be improved upon going forward. I think it's a little too quick, but we'll see.

Maybe it's because I'm a Braves fan & live in Houston with the Astros being good, but baseball seems to be on the upswing again in terms of popularity. I hardly see empty stadiums and I see more chatter about it in social media than before too.

 

[King Poetic]

U in playoff series runners on base and u have a important pitch against a great hitter and u have to rush the pitch

Who came up with this stupid shyt, Adam Silver?

 

[Rekkapryde]

Players are used to it from the minors....not a big deal.

 

[Rekkapryde]

Too short of a clock
Should be 24 seconds

Who came up with this stupid shyt, Adam Silver?

it's not new as this has been standard in the minors for years so players are not new to this

15 seconds if no one is on base
20 if someone is
