The issue isn't the mound or the ball, the issue are hitters that close their eyes and swing hard on the off chance they make contact.

No, I advocate MLB doing something about the blatantly obvious abuse of substances being used that is reflected by the spin rate guys churn out now.
I also would not care if they deadened the ball even more to make hitters be hitters and not HR derby champion wannabes.
I don't really care how they get there, the game is broken now and allowing it to go on as it is now is only going to further turn people off. These are deadball era averages, without the excitement if the ball at least being in play and it is ruining the game.
And why not fuck with pitchers, it's not like they haven't initiated subtle changes in the past to restore balance. A 95 MPH fastball used to be special, not average.
