"Words matter, and baseball 'bullpens' devalue talented players and mock the misery of sensitive animals," PETA exec Tracy Reiman said.
The org. added that it's all a problem because bullpens are places where cows go before they're slaughtered on farms ... and where the animals go before they're treated poorly at rodeos.
"Strike out the word 'bullpen,' which references the holding area where terrified bulls are kept before slaughter," PETA said, "in favor of a more modern, animal-friendly term."

So the cows know we call it a bull pen?
But PETA says NOTHING about Fauci MURDERING beagles..but hey let’s focus on cows feelings
Gee I just love these Babylon Bee articles. I am a great fan of satire.
Wait, what?
I kindda like Arm Pit:-)
Latecomers to ball games in the late 19th century were cordoned off into standing-room areas in foul territory.
Because the fans were herded like cattle, this area became known as the “bullpen”, a designation which was later transferred over to the relief pitchers who warmed up there.

They’re just trying to distract from Fauci and the Beagles.
OK, then, eet moar chikin. B-) B-P
Barking up the wrong tree. PETA needs to focus and expose Dr. Fauci and his gain of function experiments.
Show me one cow that is offended and I’ll agree.
Also I want that cow.
Man’s inhumanity to bulls must stop. We must not delay.
I had to look twice to make sure it was not the Bee.
But, but, but, the barn is where cows are kept while their milk is stolen from them to give to undeserving humans, and causing the mass deaths of milk-starved calves. Call it the “MLB safe space for pitching snowflakes.{
“Let’s Go PETA!”
I thought it was because the pen was situated near or under the “Bull Durham” tobacco sign. In any event, the children over at peta have no sense of knowledge of baseball history...just their feelings. And, to quote the great Dave Chappelle, “America doesn’t give a f*** about your feelings”
I chewed Red Man when I played....
Long time ago now............
What the far left actually believes: Language is root cause of all the evil in the world (except when we use it, which is always “for the greater good”). Language is employed to discriminate against and among animals, plants, fellow humans, and inanimate material. If we ended the use of languages of any sort and resorted to a vegetable existence, things would be wonderful.
