I don’t think it has anything to do w council, just another puppet doing what the computers say is best. Kills me the way the sport trending w all these front office computer geeks that have never played a lick of baseball using computers to tell them best way to approach the game simply ignoring or firing the old school baseball lifers. The result is far more strikeouts than hits, no emphasis on situational hitting or doing the little things that win games, disregarding starters and taxing your pen cause on paper it sounds good to trot out 7 different flame throwers for a inning each even tho we all know the likelyhood of that many pitchers performing well on a given night is relatively slim!! Front office computer nerds turning this wonderful sport into video game baseball!
