Wednesday Night Open Thread

At the GM Meetings earlier today, MLB announced the launch of Pitch Smart, which is a “series of practical, age-appropriate guidelines to help parents, players and coaches avoid overuse injuries and foster long, healthy careers for youth pitchers.” The website includes things like rest guidelines for pitchers in different age groups, a list of frequently asked questions, and other resources that may help cut down on the number of elbow injuries and Tommy John surgeries. Good job by MLB putting this together. Hopefully it actually makes a difference.

Here is your open thread for the evening. The Knicks and Nets are both playing, plus Game One of the All-Star Series in Japan will be replayed on MLB Network at 9 pm ET. I won’t spoil the outcome of the game for the few of you who managed to go through the entire day without seeing it, but here’s the box score if you’re interested. Have at it.
