Mound visits limited in 2018

[SlinkyRedfoot]

I'd be curious to know how many mound visits have been made in past.

A shitton. Particularly when you include visits by players, which this rule includes.

I'm glad about it. The visits were ridiculous. You're a battery in MLB, you should be in sync with each other.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

I still don't see why we need mound visits at all. If you can't handle the pressure of the game and need someone to calm you down then find a different career. If you are afraid the other team is picking up your signs then that is on you. Change them the next inning.

I am basically an "old school" kinda fan. This rule doesn't bother me. I know the pace of play talk is geared toward younger, newer baseball fans. No problem with that (to a point).

For me, I have never had an issue with how long the games take. And now, with social media/cell phones, I can stare at my device like an idiot. And send dick pics.

You've got my cell number, right, Champ?

id like to see about 100 less games, and guys not go on IR for bruises

I'd like to see you fuck off into the Allegheny.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Id rather see 82 games or 62 games that matter over 162 where literally every team wins 60 games.........

You should probably just go play Minecraft.

I don't understand this nonsense about "well, there's no penalty discussed in the rule." Every rule in the book doesn't explain what the penalty would be if was broken.

"but, what if a batter takes a third strike but refuses to leave the batter's box?"

They're rules. If they're not followed, there will be penalties. STFU.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

Ryan Braun is absolutely disgusting in how he delays an at-bat.

He's also a walking piece of shit. Fuck that guy.

 

[SlinkyRedfoot]

But if the pitcher and catcher need to discuss signs I don't see where there is a penalty defined if the catcher just says F you to the ump and goes out anyway.

Do you see where there is a penalty defined if a batter hits a fly ball that's caught, but he goes to first anyway and refuses to leave?

GTFO

Oh big man. Tough guy on a message board

GTFO

You mean in the rule that says the batter is out when the ball is caught?

What kind of drugs are you on? And why aren't you sharing?

 

[SteelersPride]

Wow slinky went through and quoted the whole thread with insults what a champ

Which is absolutely appropriate for a response to a dumb comment.

But what if the player doesn't follow that rule?!?!

I didn't insult anyone.

I am a champ, though. DLFL 2012, bitches!

Isn't that right, @williewilliejuan, @clemtheslowson, @Mondo Jay?

Everyone on the field will tell him to GTFO.

Just like you and this thread.

I take that back - I called Ryan Braun a walking piece of shit.

Yep. I'd assume the same if they're not following the mound visit rule. Ejection and possibly suspensions/fines.

Since every rule in the book isn't immediately accompanied by a detailed description of the penalty for breaking it, I don't understand why people are expecting one for this rule. Just doesn't make sense to me.

That’s right, Champ.
