Baseball, like all sports, must evolve to survive. Rule changes and strategic tweaks are as necessary as they are inevitable.
That said, there are limits. There are bad ideas.
Moving the pitcher's mound back seems like one of them.
In case you missed it, the independent Atlantic League—in concert with MLB—will implement a number of rule changes. These will reportedly include the use of an automated strike zone and moving the mound back an undisclosed distance, though the Atlantic League declined to confirm any specifics, per J.J. Cooper of Baseball America.
