Are you going to exclude cold weather cities from hosting games at the start of the year? You want to see snow at games? The season (with postseason) is pretty long as it is, can they afford to add another two weeks? -

Well there's perfect drop balls and there's simply balls that drop. If the boys were striking out on the perfect breaking ball then that's one thing... but (it seems) that anything (I'm using that word generously) that drops into the dirt, they're willing to swing away at. -

It's really hard to win 110 games. It's happened seven times total. My guess is that some of those "lucky" wins would be normal wins. -
Based on what exactly? You’re one of the more informed voices here, but this, in fact, sounds specious. I mean, Dr Andrews first came up with the idea of pitch counts for kids. For a 17 year old it’s 105 pitches. I’ve seen kids continually overused so some coach can receive praise. So, pitch counts for kids whose bodies are still developing makes sense, but you know what makes more sense? Proper mechanics. If pitch counts work (I’m including relievers because the idea they’re overused is relative to pitches thrown) why is there a continual amount of pitching injuries? I’d argue that mechanics far and away are responsible for the number of pitching injuries we still see. If you don’t want to push the envelope of how many days in a row a reliever is used or how many pitches a starter can throw in any particular game, where’s the bar set? To me it’s an arbitrary number that has been ingrained in most, if not all, managers (probably with guidelines from their respective front offices). And there is little evidence to support it’s working. -
It sucks, but they need to get through it. Tampa finished a 17-game straight stretch in their last game against us on Sunday and didn't lose any ground. -
I think it's because in a game where you don't have the lead one is hesitant to replace a proven clutch bat for a late-inning defensive replacement who doesn't have good clutch stats and hasn't hit nearly as many home runs, which at that point in the game, seemed potentially game-winning.
