    Whoa! Am I the last one to find out that it's now a timed derby, not 10 misses and out? This is going to be weird. So basically they'll now just swing at every pitch and need to go as fast as possible. They're going to get exhausted and I think it's going to make for some strange watching. I think it's even worse for participants having to rush. Wouldn't surprise me if someone gets hurt. This is bad news.

    i wanna see if some guys are having their pitcher pitch before the last ball they hit even lands in the last 30 secs or so


    could be a nightmare for camera men and announcers

    two balls flying at once

    It will also place a huge premium on the pitcher. It didn't matter much before because guys could take bad ones. But with it timed, bad ones are just a waste of time and energy. They will just swing at every pitch. Obviously the percentages will be much lower. I hate the new format. It's crap.

    And come the final round they will be completely exhausted. I really hope no one gets hurt. IN past years I thought the notion of players getting messed up by the derby was mostly a wive's tale. But the new rule forces them to go too fast and to swing at everything. It's bad news.

    It really is a stupid idea with the timer thing. How can it be accurate. What if the pitcher is quicker pitching to certain batters. He can not pitch at the exact same time to every hitter.

    Will there be a timer on the game itself?

    I like the time change but I don't know how I feel about the time bonus. The time bonus is on if you hit one pass 420 I think. I will have to see how it plays out. I'm sure MLB is doing the same thing.

    Seems too confusing. Bonus times and all this crap. What was wrong with the 10 out thing. Very bad idea. I do not think this will last longer than this year.

    Each player gets their own personal pitcher of choosing. Of course it's not the same to every player. If the pitcher throws poorly the hitter will have no chance. Hell, the pitcher may be more important than the hitter in this format.

    I think I am more interested in what pitcher wins this thing. Can you bet on that? What pitcher gives up the fewest home runs?

    I will go with Frazier, hometown thing. I think Serena would win the whole thing if they let her play, especially if sharapova was pitching.
