"Words matter, and baseball 'bullpens' devalue talented players and mock the misery of sensitive animals," PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman said in the statement.

In today's day and age, I wouldn't be shocked if the MLB takes this request seriously.

Most top relievers are thrown into tough situations, a.k.a. the meat grinder.

Wonder if they will ask Boeing to rename the cockpit?
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

PETA has good overall goals, but their methods to get there are fucked up.
They/them, non-binary and proud.
Remember that “2000 Mules” was concocted by a circus of elephants.
The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

The other PETA....People for the ethical treatment of Amputees are just fine with bull pen and vehemently object to arm barn.
