GDT 8-5: THE THING FROM CANADA ATTACKS...

Old Chip May have one thing right about bunting; I wished Duvall had tried to squeeze bunt against Cincy.

So this new rule next year about pitcher having to face 3 guys. Let’s say a reliever pitched last night and three 22 pitches. You bring him in tonight and the first guy he faces has a 17 pitch at bat and then the second guy has a 12. Wouldn’t MLB want to protect players more. This rule seems short sighted to me. Random and has nothing to do with the game.

I mean, this is the commish who thinks starting all extra innings with a man on second is a lovely idea, you know?

They should circumvent this rule change by expanding the rosters.
