Mets: Pace of play, and why we should leave baseball alone

According to Ken Rosenthal, Robert Manfred has more than just the pitch clock on the way next season. It’s no surprise that the Player’s Union is planning to veto these changes. But that won’t stop Manfred from implementing the 20-second pitch clock or limits on mound visits.

It’s no surprise that the Player’s Union thinks that this could be dangerous to player’s health. Can you just imagine Noah Syndergaard rushing to repeatedly throw 100mph fastballs? I’m not a doctor, but I feel like that can’t be good for anyone’s elbows.

Now, I know some view this as a necessary change based on the way the game has changed and grown over the years.
