The Red Sox are set up for the three-batter rule

Major League Baseball is set to introduce a few new rules for the 2020 season, including but not limited to a 26-man active roster as well as a 28-man roster in September, the injured list going back to 15 days rather than 10 days for pitchers, and relievers will have to either face a minimum of three batters or end an inning, before being replaced. All of these rules figure to have a fairly decent impact on the game, and we’ve covered the first one already, but it’s the last one I want to focus on today.
