So baseball is going to give it a try?

Umm? It will be the biggest disaster, besides Trump, of the year as with the other team sports that may restart this year! What is going to happen while a batter is at the plate? With the batter, catcher and ump within 4 feet of each other? That’s not a good thing! Will the ump sit in the stands behind home plate with binoculars to calls balls and strikes and will they use instant replay to call a runner out on the bases? Oh, so many issues! Just not play and bring backs sports when things are better for everyone’s health! I am a sports fan and I can still live without if it’s gonna save people’s lives!

1. Keith Olbermann gives it 0% chance that it will

even go into Sept.

2. Baseball still thinks it's #1 and the players union is massively strong

Yes this was spurred by the owners from what I can tell.

Baseball thinks it is and in some ways really is. Forget all the other sports, what everyone really craves is baseball. Case in point, 25 years ago the NFL moved to Sunday night games. Sure, said ESPN, football rates are always amongst the highest so we’ll put you on ESPN. Whoa whoa whoa said baseball, WE’RE BASEBALL ALL ITGERS BOW TO US. So, the NFL was put on ESPN2 and demolished baseball in the ratings.

In the 80’s baseball owners got caught colluding to keep contracts down. There was one specific player but in court findings it was clear that this was a common thing. The owners got demolished in court and by the National Labor relations Board. They are systematically weaker and can never gain an upper hand again.

3. I miss baseball terribly.

Who will want to play teams from AZ, TX or FL? No way. It’s a mistake to do this...and I want baseball badly.

4. Exactly, I am the same!

I miss listening to game while driving my truck, but right now, it’s not about sports, period! It’s about the health of Americans!

5. Right??

Listening to baseball is the BEST! I always have it on while I’m cooking dinner...it is so soothing. I know that sounds crazy...but there it is.

6. I miss it, too.

We’re watching a replay of the 1997 ALCS right now. But..I don’t want my favorite players..or even the ones I can’t stand..to die. I wish they would wait.

8. Boy howdy I get that. eom.

7. Same!!

I miss going to baseball games so much.I really have a bad feeling about this.

[MontanaMama]

10. I do too.

I wish they’d think twice....and I want it back something fierce! Not enough to risk lives. Not at all.

11. Me, too!

9. The biggest mistake is trying to play past September

Basketball scheduled too many games with a full set of playoffs. Baseball should play Their 60 games followed by a Little League World Series format to pick a champion. Trying to play full playoffs in Basketball and Baseball is a mistake.

They also need to get out of Florida.

12. I miss baseball, but I doubt that this is going to work
