The March agreement between the players and owners authorizes Manfred to set a season of any length, as long as the players receiving full prorated pay. “Players told you to set the season, but it’s too early to set the season right now, isn’t it Rob? Because then you’d have to explain why you’re only going to impose 50 games when we could easily play 70+ right now,” Bauer tweeted. “The tactic is to bluff with “no season” again and delay another 2-3 weeks until you clear the risk of “not negotiating in good faith by trying to play as many games as possible”. The public backlash combined with potential of having to explain yourself in front of an arbitrator isn’t too appealing, is it?” Bauer then estimated a more ideal MLB timeline for the shortened season, reasoning that Manfred doesn’t have to set a schedule until June 28. nypost.com/2020/06/15/mlb-should-be-embarrassed-players-livid-with-rob-manfred/  |

The owners are once again the assholes in this melodrama. Nobody is devoid of blame in this scenario, but yeah, the issue lies more with the owners than the players. The question is if casual fans will realize this, and what effect it'll have on baseball long term. |

The owners are once again the assholes in this melodrama. What the fuck is wrong with Manfred? Just do it. We should have a date by now. This fucking wishy-washy prick is making Charlie Brown look like George Patton.
I knew it, I knew it, I knew it. When Blake Snell came out of the blue, bitching about money, it sounded just like 1981. But both sides are at fault now.
And just like 1972, 1981, 1994, not a fucking one of the twats give a tin shit for the fans

He's crazy. He can't even remember which league he's running! I get that he's afraid of everything betting shut down again and having a season and then no playoffs. But Rob, one question...
DO YOU THINK WE ARE GOING TO HAVE PLAYOFFS AT THIS RATE?
Read stuff that Tony Clark is just a front and the legal minds at MLBPA are running the railroad. At least in the earlier times, real people were running things. Marvin Miller, Donald Fehr, Ray Grebey, Bud Selig. This is a three ring circus.

MLB is run and played by idiots.
I sincerely hope they cancel the season altogether. It should have never come to where it is now. Both parties are scum. I hope the general public recognizes this and acts accordingly.
