Spring training game on MLB season opener?

Come on Bud Selig, it's about time you changed this.

Unless someone has money on a spring training game, who the hell cares about watching some Triple A bums?

It kills the glamour of opening day.

Good day.

Agreed with you on this for sure. Pretty dumb.

Yes, very dumb.

What if the NFL, NBA, NHL had a pre-season game on its opening day?

Why can't they just move that last spring training game to the day before?

No one is even at the game. Shitty day here in the Bay Area, rain and freezing cold outside...

"Very entertaining MLB opener today between the Yanks and Sox...Oh, and there was also a spring training game today...."

The above statement makes no sense.

Bud Selig, get to work and change this stupid "tradition".
