Wtf They would still technically be high school or college athletes, so ... 🤷♂️ as far as I'm understanding. Which makes me wonder - will there be separate levels between high school and college players doing this league or are they all lumped into one? Will it be exclusively collegiate athletes? Lots of questions to still be answered. Also imagine having to play a full season in college, potentially 70+ games, and then play another 70 game season right after. Some of the players would be used to it due to year round travel ball, but others might fade out in this league. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

CyggyMarlin 241 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 The new format affirms MLB’s commitment to the region and assures that communities of Ohio, Pennsylvania, West Virginia and New Jersey will continue to host high-caliber baseball and future Major Leaguers for years to come. Williamsport Crosscutters!!... Not too far from here Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know what being relegated means now because I watched Season 1 of Ted Lasso where they explained that. First time I've been able to use that knowledge since watching it.

AeroFishOne 102 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 I was wondering how this is different that what we already had. If it’s unpaid, that’s one gigantic difference Quote Link to post Share on other sites
