Well the pace of play changes are in and they are pretty inspiring. No pitch clock. No real change. Only 6 pitching mound visits (including position players coming by to chat), but those don’t count if the other team announces a pinch hitter. Click on the docs so you can read them. I am not cool enough to get the press releases from MLB.

I guess baseball didn’t like my idea of NO mound visits and wireless headsets, or my radical move to fix baseball altogether. I will stick to my Pace of Play plan which is at 10pm the game gets turned off no matter what.
Also while you’re getting mad at me, look at this pool and never mind the 18-34’s liking SOCCER better, look at the 35-54 demo!
Speed this thing up fellas. It’s a busy world and we got stuff to do and Netflix to watch.
