 "The key to MLB's popularity revival is the era of the three-sword style"

MLB once held the top spot for many years among the four major professional sports in North America. Now it is lagging behind the MLF and NBA, and is on the verge of being overtaken by ice hockey. Japanese baseball warriors such as Nomo and Ichiro breathed fresh air into the MLB, whose popularity was declining at the time, and it temporarily regained its popularity, but sports fans have begun to turn their attention to other sports, and although they are now trying to find a way forward with the topic of Ohtani, it is unlikely that it will regain its former prosperity due to changes in the nature of the baseball organization and the values ​​required by the times. The All-Star event, selected from 30 teams, is only held once, but in the MLB without stars, the strong measures of changing tactics and products, and unintentionally making sports betting companies clients, will not be a catalyst for baseball's former popularity to be revived. Baseball is in decline, having been removed from the Olympic Games, and it is unlikely that it will regain its former position as the leader of the four major sports in North America. However, there is a way to revive the situation. All players should stop signing long-term contracts and short-term contracts. This would free fans from the frustration of players who are on the injured list for years despite their expensive long-term contracts and unable to play, and would have many benefits, such as being able to escape the ties of a lucrative contract and concentrate on playing to the fullest. It is important for the baseball organization to be firm in its commitment to fairness, and it is necessary to firmly refuse all gambling clients. In Japan, this is a heartwarming story of a man who takes over the debt of a loved one because he can no longer bear to see his loved one accumulate debt, but in America, he has become complicit in violating MLB rules. I never expected that Otani's kindness would cause him to be so alienated from Mizuhara. The MLB authorities must have been troubled, but Mizuhara's unnatural behavior of unilateral theft has caused confusion in many media outlets. MLB requires transparency and fairness. It would be better to hurry up and introduce the automatic umpire system, which has many erroneous calls. The DH system, which only hits the ball despite being a baseball player, is seen as unfair by batters and players who are forced to play defense. Of course, everyone wants to be in a situation where they can concentrate on hitting, and Otani is extremely fortunate, even though he is in rehabilitation. It would be better to have a rotation system for DH. Betts, Smith, Hernandez, Freeman, and others must honestly think that they would improve their performance if they concentrated on DH. This is because the three-sword style is the backbone of baseball players, rather than the one-sword style. The Oyakata-sama says that if there are only hits and home runs, fans will eventually get tired of them.
