The big question on the new rukes changes for MLB in 2023 is:
Does this help or hurt thee White Sox given their hitters styles?Akso does it help or hurt which pitchers on the White Sox?
Which pitchers can thrive with faster pitch intervals and which will have most trouble adjusting?
My guess is that it helps Cease who will thrive and probably helps Cueto...Notcsure on Lynn...peobly Giolitovand Kopech get even more messed up under toghrer pitch intervals.
Will the infield rule changes affect base stealing? Make sure it harder or easier to steal if infielders restricted to 2 each on each side of 2nd base?
Larger bags makebitceasier to steal by getting to bigger bag surface a fraction earlier ..
Less clog on the pull sides so of hitters comtinue to pull should help them get mote hots through..but if they try going the other way then 2 fielddrs back on tgat side in the infield.
Putting in the ruke the infielders must not be on the grass means they cannot cut off as many balls or get to as manynpip ups that go to shallow outfield...this alone shoukdcresukt in a lot more hits getting through.
I likectgecrukevchanges but enforcement if exact time infractions policing is going to be very tricky.A lit of different clocks mo Ving at once...goi g to be co fusion and controversy resulting in more delays from video review....So tge click infractions coukd slow down not speed up the game if too many reviews needed.
