And it is pitching.

Baseball Isn’t Boring

It's not throwing.

And this year coming into the 2026 season, we're going to have the ABS automated balls and strikes, which I think everybody's going to love in the first month.

And then going after that, they're going to see, OK, this is starting to drain away from the time where we were trying to increase the time of games and kind of keep everybody's attention span down.

I see some teams kind of get, you know, pigeonholed into, into one way of thinking and not, you know, kind of seeing the whole spectrum of what can be desired as a pitcher and the creativity side of pitching and also the different aspects to it, which is, you know, the multiple quadrants of the strike zone, how do guys actually make that work for them?

And on the inside of that is kind of, you know, not kind of, but getting a group of pitchers who can pull for themselves as much as they'd be pulling, you know, pull for each other as much as they'd be pulling for themselves in the situation when they're out there on the mound.

Baseball Isn’t Boring

That's a team, and that's what you're really actually trying to acquire and pull together.
