I am with you DT. I want neither. I could be wrong but I really do not think any of this is being done for the fans benefit.

Fans have been an afterthought to the game of baseball for awhile now. Like many other aspects of life and society, 2020 has shone a spotlight on that unspoken, ugly truth.

I wish the sports media would just stop with their overdramatic takes where they feel they have to skewer people. The 2020 season was ruined because of Covid, plain and simple. The owners and the players were left to deal with and make the most of, a situation that was next to impossible to deal with and with a situation that was dire to begin with.

I understand, like Adam refers to, that this has left it very hard for the baseball media's profession, but enough with having to make people an enemy when a virus is the enemy. Once baseball couldn't play a half of a season with full stands the season was effectively over. They can stop trying to tell me who I should be mad at as a baseball fan. They can stop telling me that the owners have done something heinous to me. If you have to be mad at something or someone be mad at Covid or be mad at the Chinese government. Just realize that a catastrophe has happened to everyone in this country and that includes everyone in the game of baseball and its fans.

They need to start focusing on how the game moves forward beginning this offseason. Our local guys can focus on the questions that were raised on here after that ridiculous draft, like are our owners broke? Get over this season and move on Mr. and Mrs. Baseball Media.

Actually that is the media in general. They are very irresponsible and love to throw fuel on a fire.

To my regret, this season is over for me. MLB is like all business's having been hurt. Completely the fault of no one. The pandemic has been a monster that could not be helped. Let's all look to better days and there will be some.

I liked baseball long before the DH. I like it now with a DH. As long as the rule is the same for both leagues it will be better.

Just heard something on the news that I certainly do not like. BLM wants The Rangers to change their name. Why?

Columnist Targets Rangers Baseball For Name Change Due To Law Agency's Racist Past: 'It Should Be An Intolerable Embarrassment To Fans'

No embarrassment here. I am proud of our name and what the Texas Rangers law enforcement folks mean to our state.

I saw where it was one particular person who knows the history of the Texas Rangers and from what I understand it was negative to those of the African American race. But of course that is not what it means to us and the guy needs to go find something else to do with his life.
