A wrinkle to MLB’s new rules I hadn’t heard before today: The 3-batter minimum will be tested in the minor leagues this year. Since it doesn’t take effect until 2020, it can still be tweaked if unintended consequences emerge.

I got clarification from MLB on how the 3-batter rule will be deployed in the minors this season. If a pitcher faces one batter in an inning and records the third out, then he can be replaced to start the next inning. But if that same pitcher returns, he must face two batters.
