    Kids up until the 90s used to throw constantly. The more you throw the more strength they gain. When guys threw 250+ innings a year while topping out at 91 mph you rarely heard of major injuries like this.
    Imo It's a combination of a lot of different factors.

      IMO chasing velocity and spin rate is the major factor for injuries
      Sure maybe the pitch clock has some tribute to the issues but it’s very little

      @@elchancho8432 chasing spin rate and velocity are the major factor. Almost no one uses it like Justin Verlander did early in his career where he'd start a game at 92-94 and throw his last pitch at 98-100.
      Scouts and GMs aren't impressed by 93 and a 3 ERA with 4ks per 9. They're impressed by 99 and a 4 ERA and 10ks per 9.

    It is not because of the pitching clock, it’s simply the velocity you simply cannot try and throw a baseball 98-100mph 1k times a year and not expect there to be a price to pay. We used to teach kids to throw east to west with precision 93-94 was excellent at that time. Then about 10-12 years ago it became a North to South game with RPM’s being the main emphasis velocity and strikeouts attached with Exit velocity and launch angle or Homer or nothing. These changes have simply turned the game and I firmly believe the emphasis on north, south, rpm, velocity have caused this.

    Baseball is NOT DYING! Baseball around the world is thriving! Asian baseball I have seen first-hand, and it is growing. You should change this to MLB Baseball. American football is #1 also not baseball: In every major demographic group, football is the most common choice when the public is asked to identify America’s sport. It tops the list for men and women, for older and younger adults, and for White, Black, Hispanic and Asian Americans alike.

    Blame the pitching coaches. All pitching coaches promote throwing hard, they are like NPCs at this point. You can become a pitching coach overnight at this rate...these guys don't care about a pitcher's health at all.

    Pitching injuries have been on the raise every single year long before 2023 Pitch Clock
    You know what else was also on the raise every single year? Velocity and Spin rate
    Sure maybe the pitch clock has some input on the injuries however it would be very little

  • @mccawmedia6068

    It’s less about the speed of the pitch and more about the spin rate.

    Idk i think the easiest step to take is to regulate some sticky thing they can use.
    I could dunk my hand in Dr. Pepper before an outing and get similar grip to pine tar. They can engineer a sticky powdered substance that can go in a bag.

      @@dhLord64 Agreed on the salary cap. Like everything else in life. It's become just numbers. I don't have a problem with the game count. I do appreciate the games being a half-hour shorter though. That's the ONLY thing I like about the new rules set...Pitch clock.

    if you don’t like pitch clock your a snob. It’s made games watchable. If pitchers are throwing their arms out that’s on them for throwing so damn fast

    • @Kewrock
      @Kewrock 14 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Got that right. Getting through some games in the past was brutal. Now the only thing that uses a lot of time is repeated foul balls. That needs to stay exactly the same though. I don't like the new balk rules of limiting pick-offs, and the ghost runner is ridiculous. But limiting the time batters and pitchers can dance around and adjust themselves is fine by me.

Some of them sound really, REALLY forced. And cringe. And just overall feminine. Other than that, like your content for the most part

    the league is trying to control a a factor that isn’t in anyone’s control to begin with . every person is different and every person body is built and works differently. Changing the timing isn’t gonna affect every single player but it will affect those who’s body functions differently . They want the pitchers who throw more than 10 pitches an inning , ranging from 70 - 100 mph to do so in a fast manner . Common send me will tell you that’s not a good outcome . if the people that made those rules ever pitched in their life then they wouldn’t of have changed the rule . they basically chose saving tv money over their players heath at the end of the day z

    It's guys are throwing too hard. It's also ruining the sport in other ways. Batting average is way down. Too many strikeouts, HRs and walks. The ball being put in play makes it more entertaining.

      No, it's hard enough on batters as it is. When pitchers threw 250+ innings a year you had way fewer injuries. Guys like Glasnow have never been able to throw more than 130 innings and still ending up with Tommy John.
