I like the strike mat in SP.. lets stop pretending about the whole strike thing.. put a mat there..like everyone already does and plays with all year until they get to Nats.. and lets get it over with.
I like the foot in the box rule..
I prefer 10 after 4 in FP.
I would prefer it if they left the wording of the crash rule exactly as it is.
On the bunt definition....
Its fine..let it be. Worse that the proposed clarification would be picking it apart pretending bunt is unclear.
I like moving towards charging pitchers a ball on certain violations instead of IP. You'll get better enforcement if it is not such a deadly harsh penalty IMO.
Any erasing lines rule proposals should be erased.
I do like keeping runners on the bases (or vicinity) for catcher conferences proposal.
No need to mess with the catchers box.
I like the Gorilla Gold rule.. not necessarily the rule..but a rule. ASA needs to get off the fence because there is no uniformity of enforcement. Just opinion. Allow it or ban it, but rule on it (please no pretending that they have ruled on it, because they havent). And yes I've seen it in JO.. were it is promptly decided to be illegal.. and Mens where it is promptly decided to be legal. Thats lame so rule on it.
Metal Cleats, bring em. At 16's+ I say allow them. Like I predicted last year, it was a nightmare running into them all summer long. I even have run into them in fall ball "I thought ASA changed that."
Forget the coaches dress rule.. because it will be just my luck that I run into a partner that enforces it.
