    Baseball needs to evaluate scheduling.

    East coast rainouts/delays and cold weather. Season should start around mid April. Nobody is even at the games. Playing afternon to avoid evening chilly weather. Players wearing face masks for fukk sakes.

    Should play from May-September

    Season drags on and not many people even care about the MLB Playoffs if your team is out during football season

    $$ and Tradition will not allow it but May-Sept would be perfect

    I've always felt like MLB scheduling is way off. Everyone is caught up with march madness and nba playoffs when MLB starts. MLB gets a ton of focus once NBA playoffs are over, but does anyone really care that much about games in the middle of July? And then right when MLB playoffs roll around NFL is here.

    Soccer players play outdoors in cold weather in countries like Russia and Finland.

    You didn't get the point. Baseball is a summer game. In case you weren't aware they play in July and August. It's not about ball players being gay. They look like idiots wearing those masks.

    On top of that no one really is even at the games and weather issues are causing rain outs and delays. It's bad scheduling.

    Why not just start 2 weeks later and play a few scheduled doubleheaders on hot days during the summer and make it fun for the fans?

    Then there will be complaints about the playoffs being frigid in certain areas...... It's already cold in October. Better now than when it's all on the line.

    Shorten the baseball and basketball seasons by 12-20 games each. Games would be more competitive and fans would get better value for their money.

    Season should start in January right after the Super Bowl. Those three months waiting for the season to start are torture...

    So dumb of MLB to schedule games when they knew it would rain right?

    More double headers in the summer will have these pansies crying louder than cold games in the first couple weeks 100%

    Boohoo its so hot outside and I have to play 2 games
