For a RHP throwing to a RHB a 2-seam fastball, or sinker whichever you want to call it, will move towards the batter. Greg Maddux threw these all the time

A Cutter moves away from the batter like a slider but not as much movement, usually, as one. This is basically he only pitch Mariano Rivera threw his entire career. Roy Halladay threw both pitches very well and could really gently caress people up with the scissoring action on them

I'd be fine with the pitch clock going away tbh. Go back to the old mound visit and pitching change rules too

The only proposal I've seen is the double hook, where you lose your DH when you yank your starter, or yank him before certain thresholds. I don't think that's workable because every starter in the league has off days when they get chased early and when that happens, you are only further reducing the teams ability to come back. Also you'd just end up with you worst hitting guy DHing a lot and managers wouldn't have the flexibility to give a fielder the day off and let him DH.

The DH shouldn't be able to be "lost"

Mike Scott was a cheating ball scuffing fuckface who played for the Astros and the Mets beat him fair and square. Yet the Yankees will be aggrieved until the end of time because somebody banged on a garbage can.

Yes because gently caress the Astros

If this was a Philly team and not the Astros you be screaming from high heaven until the heat death of the universe don't even pretend otherwise

It’s fun that the worst Yankee fans have not only come out in full force already but that they’ve added a weird obsessive cult of personality around Soto where anything good that happens is directly thanks to him. Fun.

Soto, Volpe and Oswaldo are the only hitters who have done anything

DJLM made it one inning in his first rehab game before having to leave with foot discomfort

I don't think it's reasonable to expect him to have every different foot injury under the sun plus a back problem
