i was the one who had the idea of a play clock for pitches. but it should be 12 seconds not 24

mascot races are great

and if you are implying they should sell beer for the entire length of the game i completely agree.

Go from 4 balls, 3 strikes to 3 balls, 2 strikes. Forces both pitchers and hitters to be aggressive, shortening games and increasing offense.

I love the one foot in the box rule. Hitters and their antics have gone too far. Enough of the grandstanding. Keep your dumb ass in the box and swing the fuckin bat.

I think more pitchers are the problem than hitters, though I agree both pitchers and hitters should get ready to pitch/hit more quickly.

Eliminate extra innings and replace them with a home run derby.

I love tense late inning situations. No need to rush them

pizza_Place: 1. Peaquods 2. Aurelios
1. One pitching change per inning
2. One feed inside batters box

These together solve the problem.

I'd also add in the following, but I know it will never happen.
3. expand strike zone

You might as well add a 4-point line in basketball, and touchdowns scored on fumble recoveries, interceptions, and special teams count double in football. And in hockey, the goal is put on a track and moves left to right at 10 mph along the red line.

Epstein is practically a millennial. What does he know? The Cubs don't currently have a LOOGY.

This isn't 4chan. Pulling the "I'm more internet famous" card here isn't going to make your thoughts any more valid.

Hardly.

It would change the sport significantly. As would all scenarios I presented.
