    I am liking the pitch clock in the spring training games I've watched. Watching the WBC games with the old pace makes them seem to plod on forever... and I could live without ever having to watch another hitter adjust his batting gloves again!

    Somewhat petty, but ultimately satisfying.... JK!

    I am somewhat confused by all the talk of slotting our young players with promising hit skills into the DH role. If you're going to employ a dedicated DH, it should be a spot for experienced ML hitters whose defensive side is in decline. There is something wrong with our farm system if it continues to develop so many young players who can hit but have no defensive skill.

    Thanks for the info!

    I'm in MN and have the MLB.tv package which incudes Spring Training games. Today's game was not blacked out... BUT it was the Phillies broadcast, not BSN. Don't know if that makes a difference.

    Seems like a very logical adaptation. In a perfect world the 2nd surgery would make AK whole and he could pick up where he left off with his batting style. But this not being a perfect world, it seems prudent to find ways to put less stress on his wrist.

    I get the impression the blackouts are a Sinclair/Diamonds thing. Could be wrong... wouldn't be the first time 😄

    For better or worse, it looks like we will be consuming baseball (and other regional sports) in a very different way soon!

    Nice quote from Solano that several teams were interested and he chose the Twins on reputation. Hopefully that reputation continues to grow with higher level FAs as well!

    Great to see these guys “hungry” to develop! Bodes very well for the quality of the starting rotation!

    Most likely this was not the first time he has put himself in harms way. His luck just ran out. The subtext in the comments from Baldelli and the FO seems heavy on frustration.

    I'm hoping he becomes a legendary baseball story of a pitcher turning a devastating injury into a devastating pitch no one has seen before!

    When talking about a negative outlier, the phrasing should be reversion to the mean.
  34. NotAboutWinning
    Is anyone talking about how the rule changes will affect the early season? I think younger teams would have the advantage initially since more of their players are familiar with the pitch clock. If you watched Varland or SWR work last year, their faster pace was apparent and very much part of their pitching style. The effect will diminish over time but I think it will a factor in April.

    Perhaps this will allow him to have a long, productive career in professional baseball! The current philosophy of encouraging young pitchers to be flamethrowers is craziness and creating an endless line of pitchers sidelined by shoulder and elbow issues.
