These new rules include larger bases, a limit of throws to first, defensive shift limitations, and a pitch-timer.<\/p>\n<p>Schilling, who knows a lot about the game of pitching in the major leagues, shared his thoughts on how pitchers are on the clock.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Let&#8217;s be very clear, the only pitchers that will be affected by the pitch clock are pitchers that suck,&#8221; Schilling explained. Schilling explained, &#8220;No good pitcher will be bothered about the pitch clock.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Good pitchers never, never will be affected by the clock because good pitchers always work fast.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1.jpg\" alt=\"Larger base\" class=\"wp-image-515035\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-300x200-1.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-768x512-1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-561x374-1.jpg 561w, https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-265x177.jpg 265w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-531x354-1.jpg 531w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-364x243-1.jpg 364w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-728x486-1.jpg 728w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-608x406-1.jpg 608w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-758x506-1.jpg 758w, https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-72x48.jpg 72w, https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-144x96.jpg 144w, https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/GettyImages-1247298940-1-600x400-1.jpg 600w\"   style=\"display:none\"><figcaption>Major League Baseball will see a host of rule changes in 2023, including the addition of larger bases.

I think you&#8217;ll see a lot more teams bringing in the opposite outfielder to the infield. <\/p>\n<p>He used the example of Daulton Varsho \u2014 now with the Toronto Blue Jays \u2014 as someone who could be used as a fifth infielder if needed.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What it might actually do is it might actually force hitters to start hitting away from the shift,&#8221; He stated. &#8220;Which they should&#8217;ve done in the first place.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-outkick wp-block-embed-outkick\"><\/figure>\n<p>Schilling stated that the new system is &#8220;new.&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.outkick.com\/mlb-has-new-bases-miley-cyrus-hits-patrick-ewing-storytime-and-buying-pot-with-marshawn-lynch\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">larger bases<\/a> Although the changes will certainly have an impact, he believes the most important thing will be to limit pickoff throws at first base.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If you put Ricky Henderson on first base, and you tell him \u2018Okay the pitcher can&#8217;t throw over now.&#8217; Now what?&#8221; He stated. &#8220;It&#8217;s going to be a dramatic change. It might take a little bit to catch on, but you&#8217;re going to a sizeable change in the way the game is played.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Schilling also gave his picks of teams to watch during the season.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Love the Mets, the Yankees, the Padres,&#8221; Schilling stated. &#8220;The Braves, the Phillies, the Astros; all the normals.&#8221; He also took the time to praise the Dodgers and Padres for their powerhouse offenses.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>Follow us on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Matt_Reigle\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">@Matt_Reigle<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OutKick videos Curt Schilling, the MLB great, is now part of OutKick&#8217;s podcast lineup.
