MLB has approved an electronic device worn by the catcher that transmits the pitch and location to the pitcher and players. I don't know if I like it or not. Part of the fun was a guy on second stealing signs. Lets see how this plays out.
Who Dey!

I dont see how this changes much. Batter will now watch catcher hit the code buttons, eventually they will figure out the codes.
If anything, now the infielders wont know what pitch is coming now.

I don't know because I hate how technology is taking over everything, but it does help keep the game pure and also speeds up the game, which baseball would be a hell of a lot more popular if it didn't take as long.

I went to a Reds game about 10 years ago and stood in Center Field. There was a guy with binoculars and headset calling every pitch. Makes me think it was cheating.
