absolutely wild* how now that a schedule has been implemented, like 40% of teams have immediately been like "oh, no we're planning on getting butts into seats" when the entire negotiating premise was "THAT ENTIRE PORTION OF OUR REVENUE IS GONE, ASSHOLES"

*predictable



once again, the owners are all freaking trash and i halfway hope the mlb goes under at this point.

We’re getting my uncle a Washington Nationals WS patch jersey for his 70th bday and I’m pretty pumped about it. He’s a diehard Nats and Skins fan, he was a Nationals fan when he was a kid way back when they were originally in DC before they moved to Minny and became  the Twins in the 60’s. Tells me the story all the time how he was just waiting for them to come back basically his whole life. Guy has been rocking a “NATS FAN” license plate my entire life, since before they even moved the Expos to DC to become the Nats

Major development for Blue Jays: Vlad Guerrero Jr. will now focus on first base this spring per Charlie Montoyo

"He's going to focus on 1B and DH." Third will be an option, but not his main position anymore.

Just a 'Nats' sidebar.  Since your uncle's hitting 70 he probably can recall that the Nats (Nationals) were also an NBA franchise out of Syracuse.

Jays play the Mets in September.

Jays could be playing in Buffalo by the looks of it, sounds like the government is playing hardball on the border crossings.

  Nobody circles the bases like the Buffalo Bluejays.

Jays looking for an MLB stadium to play in, instead now.

Looking forward to my cell phone bill going up because theres no revenue from the jays.

They should relocate to Austin and play beneath the overpass

Blue Jays have the approval of the Orioles to use Camden Yards. They need the state of Maryland sign off on it but that appears to be their best hope for an MLB park to call home at the moment.
