Just my opinion........ I agree man. The original post had nothing to do with hitting the middle. As a by-product of allowing more HRs or getting rid of the extreme penalties, there would be less sniping at the pitcher.
But I agree, it's the attitude that you're a badass if you hit a pitcher, that is a problem. If I had a player with that attitude, there would be a change. Either his attitude or his uniform.
