Juiced ball per Nathan Bishop

[Bil522]

The biggest complaint about baseball is that it takes so long. So MLB implements all these game quickeners. Then they sabotage this by making a juiced ball which causes pitchers to become more fine with their pitches..which causes more pitches...which causes the games to last longer.

Here is an interesting thought....what if the pitchers had to throw heavier, less wound balls like back in the day...wouldn't their mph go down? Also little guys would not be able to hit the ball out so easily so they would have to learn to hit to all fields. Hmmm...this sounds like an old school baseball game. So maybe they weren't worse ball players...maybe they just played with unjuiced balls

As far as stats go, it doesn't really matter if the ball is juiced... Unless they plan on un-juicing it, which they won't. It's just the new normal. More offense, more viewers, I guess.

If someone has an .800 OPS with help from the ball, which is the ball they will continue to use until they invent a machine that can wind it even tighter, then they have an .800 OPS.

Lower the pitching mound!
