Title: New Rule changes for MLB this year
Post by: LennG on March 21, 2015, 12:23:49 PM
The big wigs in baseball have finally gotten the point, the game is just too darn slow, with too many time outs, too long between pitches, too long for batters to get in the box and just too long for just about everything.
Now some may like that, which separates baseball from all the other sports, but overall, most fans and players just do not like to stand around for 3 plus hours basically doing nothing for most of that time.

So here are a few of the new rules that will be implemented this year.

Thanks Lenn.  If they can just cut 15-20 minutes off a game it would be nice.

Especially as bad as the Yankees will be this year....faster will be much better.
