I don't think baseball games need to be sped up at all. All this talk of speeding them up is because the stupid millenials have the attention span of a gnat and baseball is trying to figure out how to pander to them.

I'm so sick and damn' tired of millenials.

I think the overuse of relievers hurts the game and hurts starting pitchers.

You'r half right. Millennial do have no attention span, but the games are WAAAAAY too long.

Look it up. See how long a regular game took in the 50'-s through the 70's. It's sickening now.

I love baseball, but I almost never watch a full game anymore.

All the mound visits, all the pitcher changes, all the replays......... it's nearly all BS now.
