I don't think the Rays is glory hunting. You're safe, Greenlander. Even though the Rays have been consistently good for the past decade, they really are the little engine that could. Bottom or near bottom payroll in the league yet a regular contender.
I'm not a fan of cutting to 7 innings. As UA said, that won't happen unless there is longer time between innings (i.e., the advertisers will get the same amount of ad time but might actually get more eyes on their ads because shorter games means people watching longer).
I am currently watching Dodgers-Dbacks on ESPN+ (which I love because I can select home or away commentary). Stripling is engaged with a 13 pitch at bat as I write this with Starling Marte. Marte just fouled off a pitch, but the time the catcher, first basemen were back and the ball back to the pitcher and Marte was still not in the box. He had time to adjust his gloves 4 times while they were coming back.
BTW, Marte would normally be on the public enemy list for me because of the failed drugs test. I hear during Summer Camp that his wife died recently and he's raising 3 young kids. That's a tough go. He was ready to quit and they supposedly encouraged him to keep playing.
