Pitchers are better than ever.

All athletes (other than boxers) are way better than they were decades ago.

Fat bastards like David Wells and Mo Vaughn and Prince Fielder who racked all all-star seasons would have a hard time lasting in the league these days.

I think the stats fags convinced them all that hr's and big hits are worth more than what going for them costs you in batting avg, stats fags are really bad in baseball

It’s the pitching. It’s too good and too hard to hit. They throw harder than ever and the breaking stuff is objectively nastier. Team have binders full of interchangeable dudes who come in the middle innings throwing upper 90s.

Set a speed limit on pitches back to the 1995 era or even 2005 and you’ll see dudes puttig up roided Bonds numbers.

Did the batting average change much with the pitch clock? I'm not a yuge baseballmo but I suspect a pitch clock would fuck with batters more than pitchers?

pitching has gotten way better and teams are "optimizing" pitcher usage by just letting them throw hard as fuck for short stints until they blow out their arm rather than letting them go long

also teams no longer value average, it's all "analytics" bullshit like exit velocity, launch angle that are valued so hitters are not incentivized to hit for average. luis arraez hits .330 but barely clings to a major league roster spot

in summary, baseball has become more gay

nba is on another level of gay. at least mlb banned the shift and introduced the pitch clock to counter some of the bullshit. watching tall men take turns shooting threes and faking fouls could not be more boring.

Was there a rule change that led to more 3-point spamming or was it just "analytics"?

From a young age I could never understand why spamming 3s wasn't a bigger focus of the game. 50% moar points, mildly less accuracy than a 'deep two' = why the fuck would you ever take a 'deep two'?

I feel like that's the last thing they'd do. Could flatten the mound, allow bat diameter to be a bit bigger.
