I mean the Mets are being outspent by the Royals this season..so far anyway...Never would have guessed that could happen five years ago... What are the Royals ticket prices? I used to think: hey, it's only money. But unfortunately I've come to think its more like: Hey, its our freakin' ticket prices. I really don't care what they pay players. Sometimes I find it funny, like with this Tanaka guy. I am very concerned about ticket prices. An average family should be able to afford a night at the ballpark. You have apoint...For me...its easier and more enjoyble to watch them on TV...I don't know what the price point is that keeps people home but I truly wonder how anything but a well-heeled family can attend a game at any of the major sports...

  14. So the deal is 7/155 and I assume add 20 million for posting. Will Tenaka be a fat pussy toad??? Only the shadow knows.... Off topic..but seeing money flying around like this makes me wish Sandy would call Stephen Drews agent and get er dun. Its only money for chrissakes... Lets Go Mets!!!

Certainly baseball changes and I embrance much of it. However, replay feels cumbersome and I just don't think it is needed... I understand. But it just begs for a better argument than "Baseball has done just fine for over 100 years without these changes. If it ain't broke..." For some people, at some times, it has been very broke. Ask Armando Benitez. Ask Armando Galarraga. (Man, lack of replay review has been really hard on guys named Armando.) lol..true...I'd like to see Bobby V back with a review system in place that allows challenges until you lose one and watch Bobby go to town. The game starts to feel long to me as it is...I tire of a pitching changes in the 6th inning, 7th..8th..9th etc and picture a clusterfuck longass baseball experience with challenges thrown in...
