"First time I notice any batter up too soon:
Officially, I don't open my mouth. HOWEVER, as a PU, I may call time step back, turn away from the field and pull out the line-up card. No, not as a tip-off, but to make sure I understand what is happening. If it does cause a reaction by the defense, they will have to come to me, I'm not prodding them into action."
That isn't a 'hint', it's a definite signal with flares, whistles and fireworks, to the defense. Keep the card in your pocket, and get into position for the pitch. Any off-beat move by you is helping the defense.
