Re: Universal DH confirmed for MLB 22

Boy seems like people are especially 'mad-online' recently....seems like all the threads in the baseball forums are devolving into weird arguments that are only partially related to the original subject

Re: Universal DH confirmed for MLB 22

I’m as diehard a baseball fan as they come and I lowkey like the extra innings rule. It makes extra innings more exciting right off the bat.

Worst part is an exciting bottom of the 9th inning to tie the game only to be followed with uneventful 10-13 innings until someone finally hits that homerun they’re all trying to hit.

Save the bullpen from being taxed for the next 2 weeks and let me go to bed

They can save bullpens by not bringing them in as early as the 4th inning. MLB should limit pitcher changes.

Re: Universal DH confirmed for MLB 22

The issue is it seams as no one wants these long games. Coacheas and gms don't want it messing up their lineup for the next week and needing to promote/demote players. Players don't want to play 7 hour games. Look at how full a stadium is in the 15th inning.. like 15% of the fans are going to stay for a whole 7 hr meaningless game in may.

Just seems like there is a loud minority arguing for some sort of historical compliance with rules that were made in 1903 lol It always loses me.

I am all for the universal DH and the extra innings runner rule. The game should evolve and change over the years. All sports have.

Re: Universal DH confirmed for MLB 22

I know this won’t be popular lol. I was talking to someone recently and they thought baseball should go to 7 inning games. If you look at it SP used to pitch at least 7 innings before turning it over to the BP. These days you are lucky if SP pitches 5 or 6 innings. Games take too long these days. This would also help stop the BP from getting worn down as the season goes on. Those 7 inning DHs weren’t as bad as I thought they’d be.

This would cause havoc for year to year stats/records. The year and stats would be based on something like 300 or 400 less innings per team as compared to the 100 years prior to it? Something like that....

Re: Universal DH confirmed for MLB 22

If the argument is about. Nobody wants 28 innings games or long games so do what they do in Japan if it’s about. 4 hours they say “tie” or they keep okaying till someone actually wins legit.

Or put the bs ghost runner on from the 12 innings at least let teams try and win the REAL way legit for a few extras first.

Baseball being a game of 3's, I would love for teams to get 3 tries the traditional way and then the ghost runner rule can start in the 13th.

What is the deciding factor if you are buying or not? I play a lot of exhibition games so not being able to play in NL parks with a DH would be disappointing.
