If batters could adjust their gloves a few more times there would be less TJ.

NFL QBs probably wish adjusting gloves meant less TJ in the NFL.

I apparently missed Juan Soto ending up in the Bronx.

I was thinking this. Glad to see there's supporting data.

The reason it's such a big deal this year is because it's big names.

Yeah, it’s only an issue because it’s cole, strider, and Bieber

The rays had like their whole rotation get the surgery last year

hahahha I love how outraged the commentators are


the circumstances about how the ump union is so strong are so annoying. Dude is obviously a bad look for the game

There's a clip of Skenes asking for a replay on one of his pitches. He taps his hat, and the replay video starts like in tennis. He got it overruled, and it was a strike 3 call. Evidently, he did it twice yesterday. Both successful challenges and from pitch to overturn, it was like 20 seconds.

Strider surgery confirmed.

Sorry, not sorry. My orioles/braves ws match up bet is crushed. But I’m sick of hearing how great the braves are.

I hope someone resurfaces those spring training clips of strider’s new pitch and folks being like “lookout league, strider has a curveball now”

My only beef is if an ump isn't giving say, low and outside corner all day, and a batter lays off one, and the pitcher paints one and challenges it late. Would seem a little iffy imo

I'm not for or against that. If there was a way for it to be quick and unnoticeable, I'd be okay with it

I feel like it would be quicker and more unnoticeable than an ump.

Does it just show on the scoreboard, or is there an ump there that relays what the system tells them?

I think I’ve read that one option would be to still have the ump relay the call. But also think you could just set up a simple ball/strike scoreboard behind the plate.
