    I feel like my dynasty league isn't gonna come back. Brutal if we don't get enough people and end it, I spent three years rebuilding my team and farm. Fffff

    Depending on how much, I want to play but I've never played before so I don't wanna go investing a ton of money and then end up hating it a month into the season.

    Francona wont name Kluber as Opening Day starter yet. Indians are going to 'ease' him into season due to all the postseason pitching. Interesting.

    Also, I'm so confused about Michael Brantley. What kind of shoulder injury lingers for 16 months? They still seem pretty concerned about him.

    Does anyone know if T-mobile is going to be giving away the MLB.tv subscriptions again?

    No more throwing four balls for an intentional walk? Well start getting Manfred's HOF plaque ready, thank god they'll save one minute every 2.6 games.

    Gary Sanchez's almost homer on an intentional ball was one of the more fun plays last year. So stupid.

    Yeah I don't get why THAT'S the thing they are deciding takes entirely too much time. This pace of play stuff is getting ridiculous

    Like there's a giant difference if a game is 2:55 or 3 hours even. Capping replay times at like two minutes would be far more productive. There were a lot of replays that were like unnecessarily 3 or 4 minutes last year.

    First the thing with Randy Levine running his mouth and now jacking prices up for Derek Jeter day (bleachers 10 bucks the day before, 90 on Jeter day) wtf are they thinking

    i dont think its the biggest deal, but it's definitely the gateway drug to more asinine rule changes.

    We all called it The Ted but I've always thought Turner Field was a super cool name.

    yeah Turner Field was great. I'd even be okay with like Coca-Cola Park, Home Depot Field, Delta Sky Park (aka a major business associated with atlanta).

    I hate "whatever bank" stadium the most. I mean we got lucky with Citi

    I could be wrong about this but I feel like I read that MLB went to a ticketing system that now bases prices on demand so when it sees a lot of tickets are being bought or a game is popular the algorithm jacks the prices up.

    Also for all those looking for a place to play baseball (not softball) go here and you should be able to find a league near you.

    It scares the hell out of me that Andrew Miller is pitching in the WBC. Guy threw a ton in October and is probably most important player on Indians' roster this upcoming season. I was hoping Indians would ease him into season due to his workload last year but he'll be pretty much full go before season even starts.
