So, if I were Czar of the MLB, here’s what I’d do:

Ban the defensive shift, and require two infielders on each side of second base. Make every reliever face at least two batters. Eliminate warmup pitches for relievers entering games – what other sports allow subs to practice on the field?

In addition to those changes, I would initiate a 20-second pitch clock and enforce it. Dump the replay and call the strike zone as it’s actually written.

Finally, I would shorten the season back to 154 games, starting a week later, ending the World Series before November and add in a few post-season afternoon games.

I think that's good. I can't see him signing a long term deal there.

Tigers and royals are going to play a game in Omaha next season to lead into the CWS.

With the direction Royals performance/attendance is going, I'd assume this will be one of their top attendances in 2019.

I wonder if that replaces the Little League Classic in Williamsport. I kinda hope not.
