Kind of an ass-hat comment from a guy I'm really enjoying watching play, but only kinda. No one seems to care how long football games are, but I guess that's just because they're one day a week .
To get accustomed to the mound before throwing off of it.
There are plenty of other options for speeding up the game, and something needs to be done.
Lack of talent is the reason a 3-2 8 1/2 inning game lasts over 3 1/2 hours? Do something about the human rain delays, make every team wear the Ultimate Baseball Look™, and the game will be improved.Baseball's biggest problem is lack of talent, not length of game.
Houston didn't sign Brady Aiken BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They had a limited amount of money remaining to sign draft picks with and had two guys (Aiken, the first pick, and Mac Marshall, a 21st-rounder) they wanted to get but couldn't afford if they were paying slot value to Aiken. So they tried to lowball Aiken by publicly accusing him of having arm problems in an attempt to free up enough money by going under slot to also offer Marshall a signing bonus that would convince him to sign.I haven't done a ton of research into this, yet, but did they just shoot themselves in the foot on this one? Most of the accusations I was reading were that they really had no good reason to be so hesitant and were just using whatever was "wrong" with his arm to be cheap and he wasn't budging. Is that about it, or is there more to it?
Really?
Happens a fair amount.
Red Sox took out Peacock for the Astros last Sunday after only 1/3, And he only gave up 1 run (on a leadoff homer), but had given up another hit, a walk and a hit batsman and the bases were loaded and dude clearly didn't have it.
Potential duel in Anaheim tonight, King Felix vs Richards. Will the game take longer than 2 1/2 hours to complete?
I follow a team with a really good rotation and a mediocre lineup, so it rarely if ever happens to us.
Their run right now is impressive. Some tough series coming up with the Mariners and Brewers though.

You also just don't know shit about baseball.
