Instagram culture. Nothing wrong with having fun, it is the look at me narcissism that is lame. Bonds use to get so much hate for flipping his bat and watching his hr. Now almost every diva does that so it gets a pass. The game has changed and that is fine. What is lame is having a dude start on 2nd base in extra innings. Automatic walks are lame. Getting rid of the DH in the NL is lame. The thought of a computer strike zone is incredibly lame. I love baseball because of its quirks. But all of them are being removed for the sake of appeasing a younger crowd that is more concerned with stats than with watching a game. I could not care less about the cheating.

Pitchers SHOULD be able to cheat via substances put on the ball. 👍 This has been part of baseball since the 1800s. If a hurler gets caught... he's ejected. If you want to add a short suspension, that's fine... but doctoring the baseball and facing possible ejection just adds color to the game. It ain't like steroids or HGH. Shut up & play... ball is still the best game of all time.

​@@riverrushforth Major League ballplayers weren't making millions when they unionized. They didn't make shit. Most of the players who weren't stars had offseason jobs until like the mid 70's. I don't think they even had pensions. They were able to unionize effectively because no-one else could play baseball as well as them and they have name value with the public. Their skills and names are actually worth a lot of money. It's harder to unionize and have a strong union when you are a nobody and literally anyone could do your job.

The lack of spin isn't what makes a knuckleball hard to hit. It's the fact that it's thrown in a manner that changes everything about the required swing mechanics to make solid contact. You have to use a slow pitch softball type swing to be effective at hitting a knuckleballer. If you use a standard essentially "level" swing the margin for error in making solid contact with a ball dropping pretty much vertically is so small you have almost no chance of making contact at all, let alone solid contact.

@@sammysleeves33 And you'd be wrong. Regardless of the speed of the pitch it's a lot easier to match the swing plane with the flight of the ball when it's relatively predictable. You must have missed the part in the video where a study determined that a significant increase in spin rate was more effective at getting more swing and misses than a 10mph increase in velocity. Velocity can be adjusted for by starting your swing early when you expect a fastball. And yes even major league hitters do that, which is why they look so ridiculous so often when they don't get the fastball. It's a lot harder to adjust for a pitch you have no idea what speed it's coming or where it's going.

The game just seems to have this sneaky shroud surrounding it, like there are all these unwritten rules that they demand observance of, but then there are these written rules that are acceptable to break as long as you don't get caught.

As for F1, I don't follow it that closely. Indy racers are known for cheating. Golfers have also tried to find ways to improve their games with club design and ball technology. One very popular forma a putter was recently outlawed by the PGA. Lance Armstrong was caught cheating in the Tour de France bicycle races. Ice hockey has had players ejected for using illegal sticks. I don't follow all sports (I don't care for some of them), but I am sure that there is cheating in many of them. It does seem to be more prevalent in sports that pay their participants a lot of money.

Yeah, they make it abundantly clear that they (reporters) are in a business, and they frankly don't care as long as the headlines make money. The primary reason is because pitching cheating seems blatant and rampant if you know anything about baseball, but looking at a guy who ballooned in size after being in the majors? That's an instant, clickable (readable attention grabber back then) headline that scratches just that level of surface that sports journalists drive at. You have to talk about RPM/spin rate to discuss pitching cheating, and how these things facilitate that. Everyone knows what steroids are, and their effects/impacts are extremely noticeable even in a picture. But like you said, that doesn't make pitching cheating any less of an offense. Trevor Bauer is a wacko, but he was right on this: sticky stuff is even more egregious than steroids. Most of the time at the top level, steroids didn't make bad players good. They made good/great players even better. But Gerrit Cole went from straight cheeks to Cy Young material. That's insane, should never be allowed.

@@peepopog4279 I agree with everything you just mentioned. I'd even add one more thing on top of that. I believe the "steroids era" was blown up the way it was, not because what was being done, but rather because of who eventually started taking down some of baseball's most hallowed records. Barry Bonds. As long as home run chases stayed between players the sports media approved of, and in particular the real life Paul Bunyan (McGuire) and his loveable affable side kick (Sosa), the the sports media was more than willing to overlook anything that questioned the legitimacy of their accomplishments...especially if it meant potential career suicide themselves. But when someone that they already had disdain for started crashing the party..that's when everything suddenly changed. Baseball writers slavishly revere their stats and records, and there was no way in hell that they were going to allow Barry Bonds' name to forever be mentioned with the likes of Ruth, Aaron, Maris, Mays, etc. And if that meant destroying a sport that had finally regained it's popularity following the 94 strike, as well as most other players of that era that may or may not have been guilty of anything more than suspicion, then so be it. I say most because of (achem David Ortiz achem). Juxtapose that with pitching, and yes stat geeks love pitching records too, most pitching records are either too out of reach or too obscure for most of the casual public to care. Everyone knows how many HR's Aaron Judge has..hardly anyone know how many K's Gerit Cole has. So as long as a pitcher doesn't get caught up in the PED whirlwind, the media will treat his cheating the way a cop would someone driving 5 miles over the speed limit. Even though the type of cheating pitchers do affect the game play on the field in a far more stark way than substances taken by hitters.

Good pitching has a unique and outsized role in effecting the outcome of the game- if they’re using substances it’s a way bigger issue given how important pitching is.

Trevor has, until he basically said Baseball is not doing anythung about it, hes done whats right, and this corrupt society did not reward him fir his ethics.

I guess his heel turn to use a wrestling term would be when he chucked the ball over the wall. Then went on to the Reds. I feel for Bauer , he crying out to be disciplined and they will not. Because it will mean judgement on all others. Like a cop pulls over one speeder it does not nake it right that all others speed. Like the criminals, one crime is not right, but we live in a world that evil is growing...sadly. But we all will be judged by God when we die. Its never okay to follow evil. It corrodes our soul. Look at the sorry state of our leaders. Both are sad...our world particpating in tyranny. This scamdemic, censorship. We must speak against evil. Or will be held acountable for silence or in.

This is one of the big reasons Astros got off lightly. MLB knew there was widespread cheating (as did the Astros who were cheating) and so there was kind of (I believe) and unwritten agreement between MLB and Astros: "We'll slap your wrists, so you don't get upset and start talking publicly about all the other teams cheating" and then they proceeded to quietly approach the cheaters and get them to stop. So, it was kind of a generalized corruption that was then covered up with the agreement of virtually everyone (teams, managers, owners, MLB themselves) to keep it quiet for the sake of baseball's reputation.

Having a universal tacky lotion or cream that anyone can use would make it fair and eliminate the constant drama with trying to get whatever bubba has for these pitchers and etc. And it would make the game safer because it would avoid some hit batters when you lose grip and it runs inside.

I don't know anything about baseball but could it be the current seeming lack of control on the ball by pitchers is caused not necessarily by the substance but their focus on spinning the ball as fast as possible rather than the control over it from before the spinrate was obsessed over?
