I wish they were dead.

Players standing tall still.

Owners:Hear is EVERYTHING u wanted

Players:Well how about we play 162 games so we can get ALL of our money instead of just playing 60 games


GREEDY as Hell!!! Owners want this season dont already like it never happened. Get done by November and have FA and 2021 ready by March. Players want to play 2020 season till March

Brightside 16 team playoffs for 2020 and 2021 and DH in NL for 2020 and 2021

[Namaste]

there aint gonna be a season. between the money and the fact that corona virus has continued to explode in this country no matter how much our governmental leaders want to ignore or deny the reality of what is happening there will not be pro-sports leagues coming back any time soon. Especially the NBA in that orlando bubble idea.

This post isn’t going to age well.

Lets check back on this one July 30th.

I find it very hard to believe that either side would blow up the season over what is likely a difference of 10 or less games, but I wouldn't put it past either side. Hopefully they can reach an agreement soon.

All on the players. Owners gave them everything they wanted except # of games and total advance forgiven

Players pretty much want to play as many games as possible to get more cash while owners want everything done by Nov so they can have GM Meetings/FA and all and get to March 2021.

Just remember these are the same players who sacrificed the new guys by saying if u give us service time we are fine with a 5 Rd Draft and the ability to pay them less

Hate to say it cause most the owners are greedy as hell but seems like they wanna play games/season as long as done by November and can move on 2021 while the players are just trying to make sure that Wei Yen Chen isn't the highest paid ML player this season

Whatever they do I just hope Miami leaves all the kids down for 2020(get another year of control) and we get a Top 3 Pick

- - - - - - - - - -

Schedule should be something like this

12 Vs Atlanta
12 Vs Philly
12 Vs NYM
12 Vs Wash
3 Vs Balt
3 Vs Tor
3 Vs Boston
3 Vs NYY
6 Vs TB

Looks like a high draft pick for us

Sigh....looks like this will go on for a while longer...

MLB believes that it had an agreement on Tuesday with the PA, not a floor for the union to make a counter. So while there seems a pathway to a deal, at this moment, ownership does not see that pathway. #saber-rattling

Players still don't understand that there will be no fans at games. They are asking far too much. A few days ago, they were reportedly good with prorated salaries. Now they want $50 million of playoff revenue on top of that!

Sixton Sanchez! MLB prospect list now has him at 6' and 234 lbs! That's a tad worrisome and definitely not a physique born of dedication - esp when the 6' is a bit exagerrated.

Tons of “tell us when and where” from players on Twitter 48 hours ago.

Owners told them when and where and now the players are silent.

I had the same thought. Both sides fucking disgust me.

Both sides really are the worst. It’s been 48 hours since the 60 game offer and they are fighting over 10 games. It’s ridiculous that they can’t make a deal for the sake of the sport.

More games means more money for players. They trying to get as much cash as they can.

Owners did EVERYTHING players wanted

[fish16]

There won’t be a season regardless of the deal or at the very least it will be shut down before it can be completed

Holloway is 6'6 230
Banfield is 6'0 200

Teams training all over Florida across sports having to shut down their training due to the virus. Blue jays the latest, Phillies had a bunch, and Tampa bay lightning shut theirs down as well. We live in a moron filled state that will prevent sports from coming back and staying back for the remainder of the year

Now Clemson too
