    You have to throw out all spring training results.
    Once the bell rings Thursday it's a total different animal.

    The return of the extra inning ghost runner rule means you have to handicap each teams relief staff harder.

    Roster expansion to 28 (29 in case of a doubleheader) just for the month of April is a colossal pain in my ass too.
    You have extra players and especially pitchers to consider.

    May 1 dugout rosters return to 26 players..

    I started breaking down 2022 MLB season at the end of February and I'm still not ready yet.
    This year you need to handicap relievers just as hard as starters, you have the Ohtani DH rule kicking in this year...

    I'm not ready yet, and all i have is a migraine.
    I may sit out and just take notes the first month.

    Oh, Manfred isn't fit to run a 14 year old Babe Ruth League, forget MLB.
    Manfred needs to be strung up by his nuts, there wasn't anything wrong with the game that a couple of tweaks could cure, his lunatic ideas are just stupid.

    NFL is fun and all, I just break even there, MLB is where the money is at, just say away from the chalk.

    They changed the ball twice last season alone.
    Manfred again not knowing what he wants.

    Just move to aluminum bats. The ov/un would be 25 in every game.

    I bet Manfred would if it wasn't for the fact that college pitcher was almost decapitated with a line drive.

    It's not the games they're fixing per se, it's more like a marketing experiment.
    You know, "do the fans like the homerun more, or lesser scoring and a quicker game more" type of thing.

    I've said it a million time, Manfred is clueless.

    The worst part of baseball is the constant changes.

    Letting pitchers use spider tack, stopping them mid season.

    Changing the ball over and over and over again.

    Stupid ghost runner nonsense. I thought we were done with that.
