I wouldn't say anyone is really crying about it. It's just many are questioning if it's true and if it's a good thing or a bad thing.


Sounds to me like Verlander is crying about it :

I hate the way I feel out there," he said. "No matter who's the batter, I feel like I'm constantly walking a tightrope, because any batter can go opposite field. Any batter can leave with any pitch that's anywhere in the zone. You can't miss barrels anymore. You have to miss bats. There's been multiple times this year where five years ago I'd probably just throw a fastball away. I can't do that. Because you're the 8-, 9-hole hitter and you still can hit an opposite-field homer.

Agree then haha.

It's funny how Verlander is the one bitching about it despite being one of the best pitcher in the league this year. He does have given up a lot of long balls though..

Only 26 so far, really hoping he gives up 3 in his next start for that Career high.


And now Manfred says balls are all the same.

Who cares, Not like the balls are doing as much as whaever Houston is doing to make Verlander Relavent again, and Charlie Morton a stud (even in tampa now) and Cole up his shit. I want to know whats in Houston's pitching water.

Well a pitcher fighting the stats of history to cement his name in the annals of time would probably naturally be pissed if he's getting shafted by new physics

Homers sell tickets

Of course they'll try to spice it up, no one wants to go to a game that goes to the bottom of the 12th with the final 0-1

Sadly, this. The game is just too long and boring without multiple hr's.

I would like to get a home run ball and cut it open and compare it to one I order directly from one of the biggest rawlings distributors in the US.
