MLB: MLB to Start Back Up on July 1?
- Thread starter jpete24
- Start date
that is crazy the players union is dragging their feet so much especially when they know what it was like when their was last a strike.
Right, and I totally get why the 60 game schedule is wanted, the players union is really messing up badly here.
Agreed. With all that is going on in the world, now is not the time to extend your playoffs even longer. Do they want to play on Thanksgiving? I think they are making this harder than it needs to be. Just pick a start date and play the games left on your original schedule. Leave the playoffs like last year. Prorate the salaries based on # of games played divided by 162.
I don't think I know what I'm talking about...just keep hearing these random plans, and I don't know if they're permanent or just for this season
God, if they could have figured this out for first pitch to be on the 4th of July it would have been amazing. But instead, the bed was ****.
If this turns into no baseball this year the players really are shooting themselves in the foot with the CBA due for negotiations after 2021. This mess combined with a possible work stoppage after next season and it is going to do more damage to the sport than 1994-95 strike that ended the 1994 season early and delayed the start of the 1995 season. It basically took the steroid induced 1998 season with the HR chase to begin to recover from that and I still think even today the sport's popular never quite fully recovered from that strike.
