I saw this recently...

Wasn't there a MLB pitcher using this last week or in spring training?  I want to say they made him stop using is until further study was done.  Anybody heard anything else on this?  Unless there is evidence to show it doesn't work I say let them use it because anything is better than nothing which is the way it is now.

Can anyone explain what is meant by the reference to "MLB Approved"?  Do things like body armor need specific approval or simply not conflict with MLB contracts (along the lines of Beats vs Sony headphones in the NFL).

Saw an article on this yesterday and was intrigued enough to forward it to my son. Am hopeful that colleges like his are taking a hard look at it, as well.

The ESPN story suggests that 20 MLB pitchers are using it this season. Knowing how begrudgingly players can be about adopting innovations unless they're quite obviously advantageous, that seems pretty significant to me.

I am all for this, but this product would not have helped Carrasco as he was hit in the face. 

Not that different than this product currently raising money on KickStarter...

I like this one, just getting a quick look.
