It's also nowhere as physically demanding of a sport as basketball, where you're in constant movement 30+ minutes a game and during practice.

The implication in the article is that the travel schedule/lack of sleep is the central issue, not the intensity of the workout.

> One study found that MLB players' strike-zone judgment was worse in September than in April in 24 of 30 teams. When averaged across all teams, strike-zone judgment was significantly worse in September compared with April. The statistical model demonstrated strong predictive value through the season.
