The baseball 'negotiation' is one of the dumbest things in recent sports history. I use quotes for negotiation because I'm not sure something where both sides seem to just send each other the same thing over and over really counts.

Just announce a silly 50 game season and be done with it already.

Won’t happen until the players get 100% prorated salaries.

Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell said shortstop Luis Urias and pitcher Angel Perdomo tested positive for the coronavirus before the intake process.

Counsell said on Monday that both players are asymptomatic.

Am I crazy? I kinda love the thought of this All Central Division. I'm so ready to hate all these teams. Haha!

I never really loved the NL switch, kinda excited to be playing some those AL teams again. This is sort of best of both worlds.

Is FSN going to be carrying games? If so, how is the blackout thing coming into play? I have DirecTV and have never had games blacked out so assume may not apply to me...?

Totally agree. When I first saw the set up I thought MLB should look at ways to make this more of a permanent set up.

Keston picking right up. I don't know what position he'll ultimately play but my God he can hit.
I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

To anyone who has T-Mobile as their carrier, if you download their T-Mobile Tuesdays app, they are giving away a free subscription to MLB.TV this season, as well as a free year's subscription to The Athletic. I grabbed both yesterday. Pretty sweet.
