Misleading tweet is misleading.

Time to put the brakes on again??

“When and where” what a bunch of shit.

There won't be a season. By the time they figure anything out, hundreds of players and personnel will have contracted covid-19

Sounds like Manfred is going to announce a 60 gm season tonight after the players rejected the deal

 

[Fish]

Fuck baseball, fuck the owners and fuck the players.

I for the life of me don't get why people look to him as a baseball insider.

 

[GNG]

I heard they are discussing a 60 game schedule.

 

[podsox]

All reports are that it’s going to be a 60 gm season. Training camp opens next Monday. Season opener July 24...

Finally....there's a light at the end of the tunnel...??

This is pretty lame I almost would rather not have a season 60 games really? So the MVP of the league will have 17 homers, 42 hits and 30 RBIs? So we will only see the elite starting pitchers play 10-12 starts before going into the post season?

How would the minor leagues work will they also be 60 games?

No minors I'm pretty sure

Jesus the players boned themselves on this one. They gave up money, eliminated qualifying offers for 2021, paycheck advance forgiveness, COVID 19 protections, and protections for non guaranteed arbitration contracts next year. All just to be able to file a grievance.

MLB gave them an offer to make it less ugly, and the PA went against it. How the hell does Tony Clark still have a job?

And they could've gotten a jump on the other sports. Now they will be battling for air time with two playoffs and the NFL a month later.

We could've been close to starting the season now

“When and where” what a bunch of shit.

How is it even a bunch of shit though? Doesn't the PA turning down the owners' offer just force exactly that action?

They probably just believe they have a good case with the grievance, no?

How's that

They already agreed to a deal that gave Manfred this power. Knowing that they had no leverage they doubled down on stupid over ten flipping games
