Will The MLB Suspend The 2020 season

[S5Dewey]

I have never been able to get into baseball video games.

 

Me too.

Apropos absolutely nothing, the Sox have unveiled a new logo for COVID-19 reminding all of us to keep a distance from one another.

Dewey, if they have second abbreviated Spring Training, would you go bask to Fla?

[Kimmi]

Players will reportedly get a full year of service time for games played in 2020.

 

No decision yet on what would happen if the season gets completely cancelled.

Interesting. And of course the players get full salary.

Makes the Betts trade look even better. Dodgers get Betts for one partial season. Sox season sits on hold while Verdugo recovers...

To answer your question, probably not, but I don't think that's even in the cards now. The Sox have already made provisions for crediting any unplayed games toward the cost of next year's tickets.

Happy Opening Day everyone!

I leave Florida in a month and even if here, one spring training game is enough. $50 a seat tickets to see a couple of starters for 3 or 4 innings seems like a bad deal.

If you don't want to go to the games you might want to head over to the fields in the morning during the few weeks before the games start. You can watch the drills and workouts as well as see many prospects, all for free!

[Thunder]

There are also plenty of sites you can buy tickets on for less than $50. I appreciate you trying to help out the organization by paying full price, but let someone else do that. You've earned it!

Yeah, I thought it was interesting. Huge win for the players.

It does make the trade look better. In fairness to those who hated the trade though, we can't really give Bloom any more credit for it.

Well we needed it to get under the luxury tax threshold. This entire time, I'm convinced that we're going to go after him next offseason, a la Chapman with the Yankees a few years ago

I am not convinced that we are going to go after him, and I really hope that we don't. Unless we can get him for about half of what he is asking for in both $ and years.

[Bellhorn04]

I'm not convinced either. I don't think Henry hired Bloom to act like Dombrowski.

 

And the news on Sale can't be doing much for Henry's opinion of big contracts.

I Betts only gets 6/90, the economy has completely collapsed or Mookie has a serious health concern.

But if the economy has collapsed and Mookie signs here for 6/90 then ticket prices will go down..... won't they?

Knowing Henry? Maybe.

Anyone else ever use Out of the Park Baseball?

The team's Instagram page shared a nice video that I put on my story, and the MLB sent out two very well put together videos

And the news on Sale can't be doing much for Henry's opinion of big contracts.

 

Agreed. I don't think Henry is looking to hand out any more large contracts.

[Kimmi]

I Betts only gets 6/90, the economy has completely collapsed or Mookie has a serious health concern.

 

I'll go with choice A.

If you feel sad, just google David Ortiz 2013 Postseason.

 

MLB.TV has opened up its archive of games from 2018 and 2019, including all postseason games.

 

For anyone really jonesing for baseball, you can watch any of those games for free.
