MLB too slow to improve pace

By Chris FayAugust 1, 2017

Are you a fan of Major League Baseball?

Well, guess what? MLB couldn’t care less about you, the fan. In most major sports in this country, the leaders strive to make their product more appealing to the lifeblood of their league — their fans. But Major League Baseball is ignoring you.

Oh, baseball leaders claim in their smugness, "The game has never been better." A statement that is an insult to anyone who loves the game they are (quickly) destroying.

The question isn’t, what should they do? But it quickly is becoming, is it too late? They have alienated an entire generation of potential fans and subsequently are turning our national pastime into a thing of the past.
