I agree, but they should've left the ball the f*** alone, originally. He f***ed baseball up, single-handedly. Now it's stuck in all this twisted plot for both sides. Enjoy ball this year... the fool's locked in this mess.
Scuffing the ball, pine tar, etc... has been around forever, pitchers are and were always looking for an edge. Though spider tack is indisputable on the RPM rage in stupid cheating... Vlad's a boss!!!
This guy Sam Long debuting in the show looks pretty good, not sure if it's the Rangers line-up, but he's carving them up. Couldn't even find him on "The Board" on fangraphs, but his stats look good. Hmm...
4 IP, 1 BB, 7 ks, of no-no ball so far
