That article has some interesting quotes from Lucas Giolito. He basically said that he worried about it at first, but then realized that if he just pitched at his normal pace, he was okay.
And that's what people who are freaking out don't understand. The pitch clock won't affect 90% of all...

looks like the pitch clock by itself had anywhere from no effect to cutting 16 minutes on average. On average in all MiLB, it cut 6 minutes.
I dont know how people can root for teams whose owners think like that. They don't want to give him the max? So they will trade him for picks and expiring contracts. And in 10 years they will still be at the bottom of the Eastern Conference.
Everton's newest forward, Theo Walcott will take the pitch tomorrow for the blues. I can't wait to see what he can do up top to help us find the net more often...

It also could just be a freak occurrence. It. Oils just as easily go back to the...
it's an exhibition game for the fans...that's why they get the vote. People have the same complaints in MLB when teams like the Royals stuff the ballot box seemingly with clickfarms in India....
It sucks and guys like Lillard have legit beefs, but in the end it is a game that doesn't matter in...
Interesting trend the last 2 years in ERA by league. The gap has been closed. Not sure why, but it is something to keep in mind when evaluating pitchers who made a league switch this off-season.
Moran was the best prospect and he is blocked for a long time. Musgrove was going to be solid in the pen and spot starts. Both will get a good shot at significant playing time in Pittsburgh. Pirates will like them
