3 batter minimum rule

MLB passed a rule that relievers must face a minimum of 3 batters or get the last out of an inning before being pulled. Do you want this rule? I don't think it matters as they did it to save time and we sim but I don't care either way.

Do we have a problem in game where a reliever will only pitch to one batter? I honestly have no clue as I really don't pay much attention to the reliever's batters faced

No, just a new rule MLB did to speed up games. Just something new and up to you guys if you want us to have it.

Pretty sure we have the opposite problem

This just kills the specialist option. That's really the only time a reliever will come in and just face 1 batter.

Missing 3 votes but I'll say this one passed. 3 batter minimum in.
