MLB would institute a pitch clock in 2022, after the collective bargaining agreement runs out at the end of the 2021 season. Minor League Baseball played with a pitch clock during the 2018 season and major leaguers are playing with one during spring training. But some pitchers have voiced virulent opposition to the pitch clock, in particular. Washington Nationals ace Max Scherzer told reporters after his first spring training start he was “fundamentally opposed” to the pitch clock.
