  13. oh well, there are other fish in the sea
  14. ironically shifts might improve the pace of play if you determine they successfully limit offense (but there may be secondary effects where this causes teams to try to walk more) i think the push to eliminate shifts stems instead from them sucking some of the fun out of the game for a lot of people
  15. It probably won't shorten game time at all. Any time saved by not making a pitching change will be offset by a pitcher afraid to throw strikes to a guy he doesn't feel he can get out, and/or shenanigans teams will apply to get around the rule. And any rule that favors the offense does not cut time out of the game. It's just such a pointlessly dumb rule. i don't even know that game duration is the issue, so much as big gaps of time where nothing horsefeathering happens and you gotta sit there and watch Bruce Bochy or whoever do their interminable waddle to the pitchers mound followed by eighteen meaningless warmup tosses before the same exercise gets repeated in two minutes after the new guy issues a walk it's the worst part of baseball and nobody likes it
  16. the best part of baseball is baseball happening, the worst part of baseball is the waiting around for baseball to happen; this reduces that some It really is, it fundamentally changes things. LOOGY’s will become extinct. willy-wonka-stop-dont.gif

  18. i should have clarified, "at nsb(b)"
  19. as i recall it i hated Todd Hollandsworth unhealthy levels didn't everyone mostly hate Theriot at some point
