I would probably defend NJ if I grew up there but I'd be wrong

I’ve always supported giving NYC back to the indigenous population.

its a fruitless fight because the mlbpa wants it and mlb wants it so its gonna happen.

it's still bullshit and just homogenizes the game. theres nothing differentiating the leagues now, so you may as well just put em all into 1 big shitshow league and invite the top 30 teams into your new expanded playoffs for more of the same thing we have now, but with implications

Teams that draft well do so no matter where they pick. Teams that draft poorly do so no matter where they pick I want my team to win games and draft well

They might be able to just show up and claim it pretty soon.

They don't have an answer for anything I said and they don't even understand what it is they are against. So we're back to bad jokes and "pitchers can't hit". Brilliant analysis here.

It's kind of fun to watch my team sleepwalk and still play 700 ball, but hopefully full baseball returns next year.

The overall point is that the things you are espousing as the virtues of keeping the DH out of the NL are things most fans don't care about.

Most AL fans, who don't know what it is because they've never seen it. Especially Yankee fans who can just buy a lineup and win most of their games, why change anything?

The Dodgers payroll is publicly accessible information, let me know if you need help reading the numbers
