And there's definitely moments during the game where...
having the pitch clock influences the strategy of the game.
I think there's a better way to do it, but I like the fact that it got sped up.
I think if you just would have fined people $1,000 per violation, they would have cleaned up 70% of it right away.
With all the guys on lead minimal, I'm making $2,500 a day.
I think that's what it was.
Check my map on that.
But they'd be like, yeah, I'm not going to take a pitch clock violation and pay half my paycheck for this.
So I just would have spent that.
And then you would have ended up with some of the older guys that are on $20 million contracts.
I'm like, I don't care about bitch clock.
But you would have cut out the vast majority of the violations and it would have been invisible.
But maybe that wouldn't work.
I mean, certainly per game played.
Because, you know, starting pitchers will play every fifth game.
I think position players, I mean, well, right now, Otani's both.
And he's making, what, $70 million a year or something, which is nuts.
Then you have Trout, I think, that's up there.
He's a position player.
You have Verlander, Scherzer.
