I think if there's one thing I miss most about baseball today compared to the baseball I grew up with (1990s) it's that there isn't a single starting pitcher whose starts are an event that all of baseball really pays attention to. I remember it being a big deal when Gregg Maddux or Pedro Martinez was scheduled to start - it got national attention, and you would tune in just to watch them pitch. There isn't a single starter today that I would tune in just to watch them pitch.
