Nova Carmina Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I'll be watching and rooting for Comet Neowise to strike! It looks like a freebie/no expectation season for my teams, so I'm just in it for the lulz, probably. If the Cardinals or Royals find a way to get it going at the right time, though, I reserve the right to claim I could see it happening all along. Can't root for the Yankees, so let's go Nats. And then the Giants. Yeah, I was surprised Pittsburgh pulled out of the deal; Buffalo, then? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And then the Giants. Yeah, I was surprised Pittsburgh pulled out of the deal; Buffalo, then?That's what I'm wondering, although I saw one report that said Buffalo only had a minor league ballpark available. Supposedly the Jays players balked at that facility. They gotta play somewhere, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueschica Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 Shoot, Kershaw is scratched from the late game due to injury. A rookie will be starting for the Dodgers, might be interesting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nova Carmina Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 So I'm 0-2 in my early season picks. Don't worry, I won't pick your team next! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tinwoodsman Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Day 1 2020 season that almost wasn't. Ive been watching the tele since 4:30 mountain time and it looks like the A's and the other A's could do time for loitering. I could do time for not distancing from the refrigerator today and might have to be handcuffed to the treadmill overnight. At least, I will have a firm bed to sleep on! In the early game, the Jays stunned the Rays. Now for the 2nd base experiment folks! ... no more pee breaks! Fook the hand sanitizer ... pass the Visine! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

driventotheedge Posted July 25, 2020 Share Posted July 25, 2020 Rooftop seats right next to Wrigley are being occupied with permission of the city of Chicago and expected appropriate social distancing. Likely those people will be the only ones watching live major league baseball for the foreseeable future if not the entire season.I'm jealous of them, especially on a beautiful summer afternoon like it is today. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GabesCavesOfIce Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Something is significantly wrong with the United States. Compare how the NHL handled this crisis vs MLB. "Waiting to hear if the 2020 MLB season has been cancelled. Nothing definitive yet. “In jeopardy” seems to be the most texted term to me in the last 30 minutes.
