  1. Player reject by vote 33-5, Manfred mandates the 60 game season. The owners agree and await word by 5pm tomorrow if the players can report to camp within a week and agree on a covid protocol
  2. Did not realize Lugo was that big. 6'4 225...Big boy, big arm
  3. =batmagadanleadoff post_id=39043 time=1592615931 user_id=68] =ashie62 post_id=39042 time=1592615532 user_id=90] It increases the Mets chances of making the post season. I'm good Wonder if they would consider making these changes for 2021 if 2020 gets shelved

  5. https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/phillies-facility-suffers-coronavirus-outbreak-eight-positive-tests-among-players-and-personnel/https://www.cbssports.com/mlb/news/phillies-facility-suffers-coronavirus-outbreak-eight-positive-tests-among-players-and-personnel/ The upsurge in Covid in Florida has found the Phillies. The Clearwater location is now closed as is the Blue Jays facility in Dunedin
  6. Remember the dang game call. I was outside on a warm night with a small transistor radio
  7. The goalposts keep moving. Not sure if the goalposts were/are ever up 60 games, 70....whatever
  8. Giancarlo Stanton, Pujols and Miguel Cabrera are the three highest paid primary DH's
  9. Kinda like Tinkers to Evers to Chance
  10. =kcmets post_id=38803 time=1592333554 user_id=53] Well, what the balance sheets say is 'assets minus liabilities equal net worth (owners equity).' I'm pretty much in camp dont-give-a-shit whether there's a baseball season in 2020; but if there isn't, the weeny-wuss path they've taken to not coming to an agreement shouldn't be quickly forgotten by the fans.
  11. At least 8 owners do not want to play a 2020 season says the interweb
  12. Thats about it. Game time. 48-72 games seems to be in the neighborhood about the web No expanded playoffs. No universal DH and.... We get a Lowrie and Cepedes siting soon. Almost time for an IGT
  13. Can a mediator do this in like a week If...MLB has no 2020 season the NFL will totally rule the sports industrial complex. They do not need fans in the stands Would it be so bad to say see you all in February 2021. As of now 1. The logistics are horrid, and should be worked out by now 2. No fans in stands 3. Acrimony amongst Players owners and fans 5. Unknown health risks and adinfinitum. Dang, the NBA, which largely wants to play is going to take two months to be up and running, despite what Neturd Kyrie Irving says
  14. New deadline tomorrow by MLB 76 Games at pro-rated pay. Of that number the owners are at 80% which is 20% off the pro-rated numbers agreed to in March My solution. Take the 20% and defer it into an annuity or such. The each side gets back 5%. Take the remaining 10% and donate it to Covid Relief, Racial issues, farmers and so on. This is doable
  15. =MFS62 post_id=38539 time=1591828683 user_id=60] Rob Manfried just announced that there WILL be baseball this year (as per WABC). They are down to two alternatives, one a 48 game season he can unilaterally impose and one with more games. The decision on which alternative will be in one or two days. Later
  16. Don't pick high school guys, just don't
  17. Baseball should be so lucky to have to manage "fans in the stands"
  18. And the dream season winner is... The 1986 Mets taking out the 2001 Mariners. The Mariners made the final?
  19. I guess the owners could ram a 50 game schedule down the players throats. I wish there would be fans attending just so as to see how many people can pony up for a day at the park. It feels as if neither side is trying to get this done with any real urgency Baffling
  20. So, if they play a 76 game or about 1/2 season the players get 75% pay? MLBPA would have to be total idiots to not make this work
  21. I had no idea. Coupled with the apology Grant made Cleon do, our CF's only offense was to be born black
  22. Benjamin Grimm wrote: https://twitter.com/CGasparino/status/1269716874885038080 Well.... if the owners stick to the 50 game dingy I doubt players will be smiling or terribly motivated to win, no less play.
  23. I posted early on that 2020 baseball was in jeopardy. Beyond jeopardy now On my list of things important to me now MLB is 11th on a scale of 10. I am however enjoying DFS in the KBO. Same strategies. You do have to learn your Kim's
