MLB needs to make this illegal. Ridiculous.

Why does that need to be illegal?

If there is a runner on base, that has to be a balk, but if the bases are empty I am not sure what can be done.

It is a windup, so runners on base are not really a concern. Even then, the rules say it's only a balk if you don't stop moving. There's lots of pitchers who come close on that front, this guy just has a jittery back leg and lifts his leg to start the windup. It's a timing/consistency mechanism, I don't see the big issue.

It makes for an unpleasant viewing experience for the fan. Change the rule.
