But I have my doubts. Hopefully it's just piss related? (not that way)

Can someone please explain the position players pitching change? I didn't realize there were limitations on it before.

TheFlyingLlama posted:there wasn't before, with the 26 man roster we're getting designated "pitcher spots" and "not pitcher spots". You are allowed 13 pitchers on the 26 man roster, and only players designated as pitchers or "Two-way" players are allowed to pitch. Two-way players can be listed as a not pitcher, so you basically get another pitcher spot for free. To qualify as a Two-way player you have to have pitched 20 innings in the previous season (or 2018 this one year) and 20 starts as a position player with 3 at bats in those starts. That hurt my brain, but thank you.

Redeye Flight posted:I'd like to offer my own hot take: while the Astros cheating is gross as gently caress and runs the risk of contaminating the game, I'm personally infinitely more disgusted by the people who are actively looking forwards to Astros getting intentionally hit by pitches this year. Encouraging it, even. Yeah this is what they deserve, it's too bad most of them won't be 100+ mph in fact.

dirty shrimp money posted:I think a lot of the vitriol is more than just baseball, it's just folks frustrated with the state of the world and whatever is going on in their personal lives and the Astros being an easy target to offload their rage. That's a potential cost of being high profile in the entertainment business and if the Astros don't like that then they shouldn't have cheated. Goddamn armchair psychology is brutal.

STAC Goat posted:If someone hates replay they're basically saying they like "the human element" and it means they also like crazy, bad umpires and hate the idea of robo umps. This argument doesn't hold up that well because umps don't tend to make awful calls out of spite, unlike if they feel a player showed them up and petulantly gently caress them out of a fair strike zone for the rest of the game/season/their career.

I'm not sure you know what assumption means. It's absolutely plain to see that some umps are making the strike zone expand or shrink out of spite, no assuming involved.
