Robb thinks that there are things terribly wrong with baseball and he does not see it getting any better. He sees that teams are going for smaller more intimate ball stadiums that are for multi-purpose usage, like the Battery in Cobb County. What he does not like the most is what baseball has been reduced to. Robb says baseball has been reduced to home-runs, strike outs and starting pitchers pitching five innings.
Right now, baseball have the worst bullpen ERAs in fifty-four years. Strike out, home runs and walks account for at least 30% of plate appearances. that has only happened six times. Stolen bases, hit and runs, and marquee pitching matchups are all things that are missing from the game. They are things of the past, almost endangered in MLB. Robb says pitchers no longer know how to pitch. They cannot pitch long and cannot pitch their way out of a problem. He blames analytics. While they are beneficial, they neglect one thing, the human element. Robb simply says, "we are not robots."
