You got pitchers that don't complete games. Back in the day you completed what you started, no matter how many innings the game went.
In the AL and the minors, pitchers don't even come to bat.
You have batters that look like halfway football players with all the body armor on and batting gloves.
Pitchers can't brushback batters anymore without getting a warning.
And if a player doesn't get paid a few extra MILLION dollars that he thinks he deserves, he can just go to another team. How can you fall in love with a player or even a team?? They'll just turn their back on you.
No wonder the great game of baseball isn't considered the national pasttime anymore, it's so diluted and watered-down.
I which I would've grown up when nothing else was important as baseball, when ballplayers were ballplayers.
Anyone else agree?
