Good news baseball means a lot to the American people maybe it can revive things back to normality

**johnnyvegas13** · 06-23-20, 05:19 PM

Wtf

**Buckandadime** · 06-23-20, 05:25 PM

I'm just done with these whiny little bitches..
Some, if not most training camps in Fl and Az are shut down anyway..
Baseball is my first love but the face of the game has become a loose stool...

**lakerboy** · 06-23-20, 05:25 PM

Let's grab that Orioles world series ticket.

**johnnyvegas13** · 06-23-20, 05:27 PM

I am surprised

I thought no summer sports

**Brock Landers** · 06-23-20, 05:32 PM

They got a worse deal than they were offered.

Tony Clark should be fired immediately

**slayer14** · 06-23-20, 06:33 PM

Shortened season more chance of crap teams getting in post season

**ronald** · 06-23-20, 06:59 PM

Looks like you were wrong, Brock.

**ace7550** · 06-23-20, 06:59 PM

Finally something worth betting on.

What can ya do

**Otters27** · 06-23-20, 07:10 PM

Wow

**pologq** · 06-23-20, 07:13 PM

i will take it but wish it was at least 81 games. 60 is hard to take seriously.

great for betting though.

**MinnesotaFats** · 06-23-20, 07:15 PM

There's no deal yet because there's no safety protocol agreement.

Players had to accept the monetary agreement as it was bargained collectively in March....just as the owners would be liable for a grievance for not offering up this agreement in lue of the other proposals.

Yes, they're in agreement

This farce starts July 24th.

Can't wait to see the Schedule

**MinnesotaFats** · 06-23-20, 08:36 PM

That was quick!

Wonder what the cities/ counties do w the ballparks now. Any attendance or not...

Illinois is allowing 20% capacity at sporting events

**QuantumLeap** · 06-23-20, 08:49 PM

I also posted a thread. I didn't know you started this one.

I'll bump this instead of mine.

**ronald** · 06-23-20, 09:52 PM

Brock - where are you off to next? Why haven't you made a trip to CANADA lately?

**Buckandadime** · 06-23-20, 10:48 PM

Any reason to think that pitching won't totally dominate early?
I'm not betting at all but it stands to reason with bats being dormant for so long..

**sosawestbrook** · 06-24-20, 03:25 AM

can't wait to hear what a Alex Verdugo homerun sounds like without all those annoying Boston fans in the background.

hate Boston. my son lives there though. I buy him ice cream.

**clockwise1965** · 06-24-20, 03:31 AM

good question

I would think the book would want to limit possible liabilities and have a new set of numbers for the new season, based upon if certain players opted in or out

Border has been closed for months pal

**lakerboy** · 06-24-20, 09:21 AM

Teams will play division rivals ten times.

**Hman** · 06-24-20, 09:46 AM

MLB players the biggest primadonnas in all of sports.

Stand in the field, get a couple balls hit your way a game, go to bat about 3 times, and think you've done something.

Most overpaid athletes ever.

With the other 20 games against 4 interleague opponents in close geography

**HomeRun35** · 06-24-20, 11:10 AM

You're going to see a whole lot of variance this season
