Agree as well. No threat of the long ball to tie it up or take the lead on any swing. Very few gap shots that are triples off the bat. It's just a different game with a different vibe. That's fine, especially since that's what they were going for, but it's much harder to watch as a casual observer.

True, just doesn't seem as prevalent. I feel like the pre-BBCOR bats were fine, but that's also what I grew up with, both watching and playing. The changes while necessary to a certain extent, were an overreaction to a cultural & political movement around head injuries.

Bump… Tennessee is up to 129 in their 54th game… 2.38 a game

If they get a deep postseason run and some big HR games, 59 more HRs is possible
