Rob Manfred says ‘Golden At-Bat’ rule not coming to MLB soon
40 comments
How about just never? Cheapening the game for a gimmick rule isn’t gonna get all those fans back, that’s not why they’re leaving.
They’ll do anything but end the blackout restrictions.
Had to get permission from the Astros first lol
Ever, motherfucker. Ever.
Thank baby Jesus!
Say never
Can we please not give more advantages to the teams with 3+ players on their roster that are able to hit 30-40 bombs in a season? Thanks!
How about a golden pitch?
If the batter swing and misses, it’s an automatic strikeout.
What a terrible rule.
MLB becomes pro wrestling with this move, and Manfred replaces Selig as the worst commish ever.
Fuck Manfred single handedly ruining the game with all the rule changes.
Or ever. Or ever, right? Rob?
# Rob Manfred says ‘Golden At-Bat’ rule not coming to MLB soon – It’s coming VERY SOON!
Ever please!
I propose a Golden Inning.
Every run is worth 3x, but it only takes one out to end an inning.
However, if the fielding team can turn a double or triple play, they get to execute the opposing team’s pitcher.
Thoughts?
Will we get to Blurnsball before the Futurama timeline?
🤮
Change the word “soon” to “never”. This idiotic idea is not baseball.
It should never come. Manfred seems all he wants to do is ruin baseball
Good. Keep it that way.
Yeah, never please.
Fuck Manfred
Probably one of the dumbest prospective rule changes ive heard in a long time
All the stupid rules being initiated over the last decade are slowly ruining the game. This one takes the cake though. May it never see the light of day.
“ever” Rob. That should say “not coming ever”
Can we just stop with the constant radical changes to the game year in and year out, whether it be rule changes or shitty uniforms or more and more jersey and helmet ads?
Not to mention something like this would literally destroy baseball.
GTFO with that shit.
How about 3 golden at bats? How about a golden pitch?
Now change the extra inning rule back and make teams earn their runs
Please be never!
Did I misread the headline? He say NOT so means No, correct?
Cool. Now get rid of the ghost runner.
Almost time to boycott MLB. Instead of doing anything about these nonsense deferred contracts, he wants to play Banana Ball. GTFO.
I’ve been a baseball fan my entire life, and I will never watch another inning if they pull this silly shit. I still haven’t watched an extra inning since the ghost man stupidity.
The fact this was even introduced should be worrisome
Not many changes would make me stop watching but that would make me stop watching.
I’m not planning on destroying the game fully for a while. Now let’s talk about all those advertisements on the uniforms.
It better never come in it’s so fkn stupid
Maybe he should stop focusing on gimmicks and start fixing the blackouts.
Many baseball fans know just where Manfred can put that golden (at) bat.
