Bob doesn't know shit.

When did the int draft even become part of the discussion?

Ahahahahaha

I would vote for you

Bob's information is about as good as the foodie guys. Speaking of which...where in the world have they been! And notstevecishek! I'd believe them over Bob.

I don't know why anyone takes Nightengale seriously. His reporting is a joke. All you need to do is listen to his interview with Garfein on the soxtalk podcast to realize that the guy is just not the person to get good information from. He needs to retire.

You're right. I will be.

If this continues for even just a few more weeks with no obvious path to a deal being made soon, I'll check out. I'm as die hard as any baseball fan, but if this is the kind of game they want to play, I want no part of it. There is plenty else I can spend my time and energy on. The DNR and lure making companies will get my money and I'll go fishing all summer. And the West Michigan White Caps are around if I need a baseball fix (single A club for the Tigers).

Wonder why the rejection of robo umps. Maybe because they aren't perfected yet?

The injuries this lockout might cause scares me...Vaughn might join TA as the secret backup catcher.

He'll be fighting for that DH spot with Sheets

Or maybe it's because he is 86 years old?

I honestly wouldn't be against shortening the season, if we are going to have 14 playoff teams, and then extend the length of the playoff series so it would seem like whoever wins the series actually earned it. But I doubt the players would be for that as the less regular season games they play, the less everyone gets paid.

MLB offers meal money and in return get no rule 5. Seems like a fair deal.

It is most definitely real. I live about an hour north of Kzoo. A buddy of mine sent this story to me earlier today. Pure gold.

Nope haha. Some Jay's originals lmao

They don't hate me...it just shows how disconnected they are from frontline staff...(And I'm not even technically considered frontline)

I could get behind this, but there's got to be something that can be done.

Today is Employee Appreciation Day. Our directors handed out bags of chips to everybody saying we're all that and a bag of chips. I've never felt more appreciated.

Every new stadium that's built should have a retractable roof to avoid weather delays. Baseball the only sport that has them (aside from maybe lightning and thunderstorms with soccer or football). Weather delays should be a thing of the past in the next 20-30 years imo.

And yet, here we are

I wonder if players would start demanding lockout clauses or cba clauses in their contracts. Something like "If your bitchass locks me out, my ass still gets my money"

That is my optimistic prediction on when the season will start.

Yeah, this lockout isn't ending anytime soon. We should be prepared for this thing to drag out even longer...

That's fantastic.
