Broheim goes the distance, 15 k's, 1 hit, min #of batsmen, AND he hit 104.5 and 103.5 on the gun, Damn.
Have they scheduled his TJ surgery yet? Why wait?

The demands in the new MLB collective bargaining deal is so bad for players, there is a good chance no baseball next year.

The players union has been one of the strongest in the Nation. They seem to never back down on even small issues. Marvin Miller set the stage.

Its not that I disagree with MLB, I just know the players wont budge on most of the cuts the League wants.

So what's with these stupid looking mitts the base runners wear now? Another crutch?

Those have been around since 2008. I wouldn't call it a crutch as much as protection from gruesome hand injuries.

2008 is around the time I stopped caring about baseball.
Yeah, I can see the safety value in them, they just look silly.

Certainly not a fashion statement. They have a hard shell on the top and bottom. Particularly useful for aggressive base stealers.

And I'm SURE no team is making some of them longer to help their base stealers.

Bob Uecker used to do that with his shoes. It made him look like he was taking a bigger lead off 1st base.
