    It's almost as though someone over there finally got a clue.  How long before they are fired?

    Fun fact: "sugar" is the only word in the English language where "su-" makes a "sh" sound.

    At least, I'm pretty sure that's correct.

    The doctor told me I had to stop masturbating.
     
    I asked him why.
     
    He said, "because I'm trying to give you an exam."

    Elements in the agreement right now, from ESPN:
     
    Other elements of the deal include:
    • A 45-day window for MLB to implement rules changes -- among them a pitch clock, ban on shifts and larger bases in the 2023 season
    • The National League adopting the designated hitter
    • A draft lottery implemented with the intent of discouraging tanking
    • Draft-pick inducements to discourage service-time manipulation
    • Limiting the number of times a player can be optioned to the minor leagues in one season

    The DH was gonna happen.  Yeah, I get the purists dislike it, but not doing it has nasty ramifications on bullpen use.  Plus, the existing situation was IMO *clearly* the WORST case, with one league doing it, and the other not.
     
    If they do the pitch clock, I want to see a batter clock as well.  Jeter was one of the worst...step out after EVERY pitch, fiddle with gloves, fiddle with guards, step back in, get reset.  NO.  Yeah, OK, if the batter fouls one off his leg/foot, give him a moment, but otherwise, stay in the freaking box and ready to hit!!!!!!  Also:  not sure what the rule is when there's runners on base.  In the past, it's been tossed out the window altogether, but that's something I'd want changed.  
     
    Sounds like the players did get some movement on the competitive balance and service time points, and those were big.
