Realignment??

It would eliminate trying to put value on pitch framing catchers, which is clearly an imperfect metric in itself.
It would eliminate hotheads like Cole going on tilt because he got pinched. It would eliminate a power hitter sitting on a 2-1 count instead of a 1-2 count, which changes the whole AB.
Electronic strike zones can't happen soon enough imo.
That's exactly what I mean about revolutionizing the game, there are a bunch of garbage calls every day, just look at how many games are played and how many calls they make. I'd say a ful 1/3 or more of those calls are wrong. Please give us the ESZ now. I just want everyone treated fairly and it is the only way.

I agree. Guys like Maddox and Glavin had a huge strike zone once they started to establish a reputation.
