K26dp Posted December 13, 2020 Share Posted December 13, 2020 David Dahl gets 1Y/3M from the Rangers good pick-up -- good chance for a bounce-back if he can stay healthy, then he can be flipped during the season. Rockies probably made a mistake not tendering him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like he's another product of the Coors Field effect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 MLB asked the union to push Opening Day to May and play a 130 game season or so. The union said no and they fully plan to report to Spring in February for an April start. The union is firm on a 162 game season this year.

tl;dr Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Mets and Rockies are supposedly "want" to start talking Nolan Arenado. Had a really average season last year, especially by his standards. Hard to judge from the weird year last year, but yeah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Braves may be a little safer for a bit because there name isn't "Redskins" or "Indians." Not gonna lie though, the Edmonton Eskimos sounds like a sick name, but if people are offended by it, you have to take that into account. The only Native American team name that has staying power in the long run is the Seminoles with Florida State. They did it right by partnering with the Seminole tribe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unknøwn Posted December 16, 2020 Share Posted December 16, 2020 Its all about money. NBA also guarantees players 49 to 51% of basketball revenues while not hiding any. MLB promises 54% but doesn't disclose a lot of revenue streams. The NBA is a way better run league and the players are more willing to compromise. While Manfred and Clark argued through media, Adam Silver was doing zoom calls with the full NBA union answering every question and concern while explaining his thinking. jidady and ATLBrave 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
