I don't consider it a rant. I think you're making perfect sense and I agree with you 100%. I was watching a video where they were talking about these new rule changes the MLB is contemplating. The subject of the 3 batter minimum came up. Something I had never considered, an MLB reliever mentioned, with a 3 batter minimum you're eliminating the role of "Left-Handed Specialist". I'm sure casual fans would roll their eyes at that, but the Specialist is literally some player's only remaining tool that's keeping them employed and it plays a vital role in close games.
