I'm guessing there are tens of millions of reasons -- and maybe he wants to pad his HR numbers?18.27 to be more exact. I've always wondered what the difference is between making 140 v 182.7 is, in terms of affecting your life (obviously the difference is 42.7.). At some point the marginal value is pretty low, I would think. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always liked that guy.Yay, I have always liked the Dodgers (I grew up in Spokane when that town was their AAA affiliate so come by it honestly......no frontrunner bullshit). I live very close to their single A which are the Quakes in Rancho Cucamonga. I've been to about a handful of games there. They started out in the Padres system and then the Angels. They switched with Dodgers over a decade ago when they were the Inland Empire 66ers in San Berdu. I've also been to a few Salt Lake Bees games in my team's system since my half sister and brother in law live nearby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Principled Man Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 (edited) The "Shohei Ohtani rule." Under the new rule, if a team has its starting pitcher in its lineup as the DH and pulls him during the game, the player can remain in the batting order even after he leaves the mound. So if Ohtani were to pitch six innings, he could still hit for the final three innings plus extras.

God forbid they have more decent pitching. Am I right?

Principled Man Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 (edited) Corbin Burnes and Omar Narváez achieved a major-league first during the Milwaukee Brewers season opener Thursday afternoon. The Brewers starting battery became the first combo to ever use electronic pitch-calling technology in a major-league game by utilizing it for the duration of Burnes’ five-inning start in a 5-4 loss to the Cubs. The technology, referred to within the industry as PitchCom, is an attempt at not only countering sign-stealing but also speeding up the game by reducing or eliminating the need for catchers putting down manual signs. The catcher wears a pad with buttons on the wrist to signal both pitch type and location to the pitcher, who hears it directly through a listening device. With the Brewers and Cubs kicking off the schedule as the first game on opening day and Cubs starter Kyle Hendricks opting for manual signs from catcher Willson Contreras, Burnes and Narváez became the first to utilize the new technology in a regular-season setting.
