    I never liked Iron Maiden growing up. I could not stand the style of singing.
    The lyrics and how they were delivered sounded corny as hell to me compared to Megadeath and Metallica.
    I could never get into them because of it.
    But a lot of my friends in school liked them... or their shirts.

    Price laying $1k on every minor league player in the Dodgers minors is freaking righteous

    There was a report that in the MLBPA proposal, they wanted 2 more teams added to the league by a certain date. Only one reporter that I saw mentioned this and their follow up was that owners were all for it. Basically the players said no more waiting for Tampa or Oakland to get their shit together. Having season long interleague play is dumb and I am very against mismatched schedules in the sport, so I hope that we get 2 new orgs by 2024 at the absolute latest.

    So there would be two 6-team divisions? Or would this be in conjunction with shaking up the divisions so there are 8 divisions w/ 4 teams each?

    4 team divisions probably but I think they should do the playoff seeding based on overall record.

    I have heard original thoughts(this is over the past couple of years) that it would likely be 4 team divisions, but a real chance of shakeups in leagues. So think Rockies going to the AL Central/Northwest instead of like an NL North or some shit like that. MLB has been trying to make a Rockies/Mariners rivalry happen for some reason and my guess is if Portland gets one of the teams, then the Rockies would get lumped into something like that. Portland and Seattle sports have had some good rivalries with Denver teams in the past, so it makes some sense there.

    With 16 teams per league, we will most certainly see expanded playoffs. Could easily see them going to a 4 division winner and 4 WC format. Which we will also almost certainly have a Universal DH by then and I would guess 27 man rosters with 6 starting pitchers to make that format a reality.

    With this owner-player pissing contest going on I've already reached the "don't give a shit" stage.

    Doesn't look like a baseball season is going to happen this year
    I'm bummed that this might make Seager suck in 2021 when it looked like he was getting back to 2015-2017 form.
    Other than that, oh well.

    I really don't care about Mookie Betts or whether he stays or goes. Sucks that we lost assets for him and had to take Price though.

    Just heard an interview with Olney. Very, very pessimistic.

    Both sides aren't even communicating.

    With attendance dwindling every year since 2012, millions and millions without jobs and civil unrest and a pandemic gripping the country, we've billionaires and millionaires pissing on each over money.

    These fucks are doing their damndest to kill off a great game.
