MLB 2022: Playing Ball, But Is Anyone Still Watching?

Juan Soto turns down a 15 year, 440 million deal from the Nats.

He’s reportedly on the trading block but per Jeff Passan, one GM says it would take a “Herschel Walker deal” to get him.

You'd be crazy to trade for him. You're going to have to pay the man but why would you give the Nats a king's ransom as well?
 
I'm thinking that maybe the Electronic strike zone needs to come off of the broadcasts until they can sync it up with MLB's internal data... Cubs fans were livid over this because they all saw it as "not a strike.... (Also you are literally talking less than a 1/3" of movement on the placement making the difference on the Ball/Strike call. Try gauging that on a static object yourself and see how accurate you are **eye roll**)

You have three data points here, and TWO say that it was a strike...

Also, I love how more than a few Cubs fans think that Tumpane has some sort of vengeance against the Cubs since he's from the near Southwest Suburbs...

In the earlier game of that DH the ump's report card for strikes called was 74%.

I don't think the broadcast strike zone is the problem.
