MLB on pace to hit 2nd most HRs in history
This has always been one of my favorite baseball debates so I'm curious what people think about this trend.

Hitters are on pace to hit the second most HRs in history. This is assuming PED testing has improved. That we are past the steroid era. Despite there not being any new expansion team.

So why is this happening? I've always been of the opinion that the impact of steroids has been overblown - an important factor, but not nearly as important as people make it to be. Is it possible that baseball has introduced a juiced ball to jump the ratings? And could that have played a big part in the massive #'s we saw in the steroid era?

Compare postseason baseball ratings to NBA. Compare by social media hits. International exposure. Not really close.

Maybe. I dont think kids just starting to play a game will think about that. Out of all the games I played growing up (bball, football, golf, tennis, baseball) I liked baseball the least. Maybe that was because I found it impossible to discern a ball from a strike but I still wasnt bad. Was just not a fun sport to play most of the time. My parents made me play way too long.

Got a chuckle out of this.

Quick, everyone tether themselves to Rosie O'Donnell's ass.
