Did I just read that right (MLB base coaches to wear helmets)???

[Gobbla2001]

I think I just saw it on the ESPN ticker that MLB Base coaches will be wearing helmets next year?

[Old Tiger]

I bet they design a fashionable helmet similar to that of catchers.

[Old Tiger]

No the old school kind that some still wear. Except without the face guard.

That is kinda stupid, nobody has got killed and that is what it seems like has to happen to implement new rules.
