MLB Concerned about scoring

[jjgold]

The scores are getting lower
Batting averages are historically low

Why???

They should be concerned

Baseball will never work in some places, like Tampa Bay for example

Buccaneers & Lightning always have sellouts but the Rays will never work even with a new stadium people in Florida just think baseball is boring

i love the low scoring here

btw im not a fan of high scoring in sports today, they think with the high number it will keep people in the seats or watching on tv, to me high scoring is so boring

Agreed ck

NBA perfect example players making an effort only on the offensive end

Good. Those juiced baseballs were ridiculous. Nobody wants to watch a 12 run baseball game at the pro level.

Yes most of them do ck

Except for China where they try to mimic the NBA in every way

Their totals are usually 200+ just like here

yep and you see i dont even look at those games to bet

Pitchers are getting more creative in how they are cheating and able to increase spin rates (although I'm not really sure its cheating).

The leagues create their own monsters by trying to inflate scoring. It happened in the NFL where their cornerbacks morphed into incredible cover guys and in baseball they have gone to limited innings with their best stuff.

These pitchers are too good. All throwing 95+

 

[jjgold]

Almost every game total 7 or 7.5
