Let's consider constructive comments like this going forward.
Following you down the rabbit hole Frank, I propose MLB introduces a tee at home plate, not unlike when my 6 year old son played. That way every batter would start out on an "even" playing field, and think of the cost savings in a world where Tommy John surgery was no longer necessary. The pitcher? Could field his position and win the Cy Young by leading the league in "comebacker" outs.
