It’s not what I would be willing to fork out, but what JH would be willing to fork out, and what the players would be willing to take.
-
NO, and NO.
-
How many millions, and for how long are you willing to pay these two?
-
Do you think anyone will trade for Bogey for just 1 year unless they are willing to shell out millions in a multi year contract?
-
Mets, Yankees, Astros, and Cardinals were against.
-
Owners voted 30-0 to ratify.
-
I still think the big reshaping of the roster will come after next year when there will be lots of money coming off the books, and even more if Bogey walks. Then there is still the big question on what happens with Raffy.
-
STing games start the 17th.
-
Owners vote at 6:00 tonight to ratify, and FA can start after that.
-
Bunch of Boris guys on the board?
-
MLBPA executive board voted 8-0 against, so I guess most of the team’s didn’t take their advice.
-
Who you going to trade to get anything good back?
-
If opener is Apr 7th will be at the Yankees.
-
Tentative agreement done.
-
MLBPA executive board voting against latest proposal from MLB, but so far teams are voting for it.
-
How about Sunday doubleheaders for the price of one?
-
Maybe we should just have the shift, and pitch clock in one league, but not in the other. Stupid yes, but so hasn’t having the DH in only one league all these years.
-
856 more hits were taken away from the s*** than beating the shift in 2021 according to Bill James.
-
The Owners have subjective hearing.
-
You think the owners are doing this all on their own thinking?
-
I don’t believe I said MORE people, but I did say lots of people like me. Either way MLB has heard enough feedback from fans to make the change, and if it bothers some so bad you can do what I do now, which is not watch as much baseball, or maybe not at all. On the other hand I’ll watch more baseball.
-
Understood.
-
I still blame both sides, but I have softened my stance a bit, and put more blame on the owners for going so long without an offer, or even bargaining at all.
-
Interesting way to watch a game.
-
I don’t watch nowhere near the amount of baseball like I used to, because to me the game is not as good. Games are to long, and slow paced, the over use of the shift, openers for starting pitchers, and starting pitchers that can’t face a batter for a third time through the order liking taking Snell out of the WS a few years ago, because they were afraid of what might happen to me is not good baseball. I’ve said before I liked the way the game was played in the 60’s. DH, or no DH I don’t care, but to only have it in one league all these years to me also is mind boggling. I still watch the Red Sox just don’t watch every game, but keep up with being a box score junkie. Give me an old Sporting News with all the box scores, and I’d read it for hours.I don’t know how much analytics has to do with the change of the game, but it definitely has. If the pitch clock, and banning the shift is put in I will definitely watch more.
