A shortened season would definitely be a huge asterisk but "yes its baseball" because I want a season even if it's a shortened one so I want a middle option. Link to post Share on other sites

SonOfJack 2,243 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 I am confident they can't mess this up, the sides are very close. Link to post Share on other sites
Michael 2,118 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 This is OK. We're very close here. 65 or 66 games in the end. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Michael 2,118 Posted June 18, 2020 Share Posted June 18, 2020 Mutual waiver of grievance. This is good, owners want that waiver in there. So that's already even closer than I thought. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

SonOfJack 2,243 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 $300 million, 30 owners, works out to $10 million a team. They are so upset over that? They hand out bad contracts worth more than that constantly. Link to post Share on other sites

There are tons of false negatives and a lot of people are asymptomatic so yeah, it's going to be a hot mess until someone figures out a vaccination. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Michael 2,118 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Cancel the 2020 MLB season and postpone the other league seasons for now. Cancel remainder of NBA and NHL seasons. Just keep things locked down a bit until October and then cautiously open up. 3,822 new cases in Florida according to today's numbers. 3,207 yesterday. 2600 and 2700 roughly the previous two days. We're going in the wrong direction here and for some reason we're still opening up more things. 2 Link to post Share on other sites
hovertical 224 Posted June 19, 2020 Share Posted June 19, 2020 Looks like the TB Lightning had to shut their down as well in addition to the Blue Jays. Florida and Arizona are blowing up with cases. Tampa's mayor just recently mandated masks to be worn indoors but people are harping about trampling of rights again. so on we go. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

I remember saying something like this back in March or so on here and I know it was probably one of the few times most of ya'll agreed with me haha. Pushing for this now only potentially ruins the chances at having full, NORMAL, seasons in the years to come. Link to post Share on other sites
