September has arrived, which means the rosters rule that teams have operated under for five months is no longer valid, and games will be decided by which teams have the deepest bullpens.
Those games won’t be decided quickly.
Woo bleeping hoo.
One of the biggest shockers of the new collective bargaining agreement is that the September roster rules weren’t address. It’s fine to expand them, but the thought was a daily cap would be put on how many players would be active for each game.
Didn’t happen.
So, settle in for even longer games than normal, and that’s saying something.
