    I'm torn on the shift. On one hand I think banning is stupid, but on the other, it will lead to more excitement and less .220 hitters maybe? lol

    I think maybe limiting how far a shift can be vs. outright banning it would be better. Maybe draw an imaginary straight line out from the corners of hte 2nd base bag and say no infielders in this area or something, idk.
     
  8. i’m okay with banning it, it does take the enjoyment out of the game at times. limiting it to 1 shift every 3 innings or something wouldn’t be bad either

    where would i be if i was my brain Prestigious

    Hot take apparently but baseball should run from Memorial Day and finishing the weekend of Labor Day. Expanded playoffs would obviously come into play. But only if players are getting some sort of legit income for actually playing in the post season.

    Sounds like what a rival owner would say about the Rays if that rival owner was Donald Trump

    140 seems too short to me but i'd be willing to entertain 150. lose 12 regular season games, expand to12 team playoff, first round is 3 game series.

    That's the most I'd be willing to change things. Take it or leave it and keep the 162, 8 team playoffs

    It'd be fine if they went back to 154 games like before Maris. Nobody breaking any more home run records anyways.

    You could convince me on a 10-15 game shorter season. I dont think id want it to start Memorial day, but mid to end April seems fine.

    The low revenue part is always assumed, but still hurts to hear when put so bluntly

    Apple just announced a deal with MLB for AppleTV+, Friday Night Baseball. Two games you can only see on AppleTV+.

    I wonder if the presentation will be as awful as the games they have on YouTube. Regardless that seems pretty stupid.

    Geez I wonder how those poor owners are going to be able to pay the players now that they have more money going into their pockets with this Apple deal.
