1. I love baseball. That's why I want Major League Baseball to do the right thing and get with the times. But the league seems hell bent on making sure it's as unfriendly as it is popular. Whether that's true is irrelevant. The perception is dead on.
The latest case of MLB embarrassing itself is a twisted tale involving a popular Twitter account and pitching GIFs. Yahoo's Jeff Passan has a great recap of the entire brouhaha that you should read right after you finish consuming Traina Thoughts. To make a long story short, the Twitter account @PitchingNinja (which had more than 50,000 followers) posts GIFs of impressive pitches.
