It seems like they're doing everything in their power to make sure this season is going to happen.

I realize the biodome scenarios come with their own set of issues, but man, teams flying all over the place, even with a realigned league, seems destined for problems.

I think the biggest issue will be keeping these guys from catching it from some strange.

It's a replay from last night (this morning?) but old friend David Buchanan pitching in this Korean game on ESPN 2 right now

The draft will only be 5 rounds. After the fifth round, teams can sign an unlimited number of undrafted players for a maximum bonus of $20,000.

This seems dumb.

A lot more than 20K, but when the NCAA and HS Athletics have all allowed for seniors to come back for an extra year, it has changed the dynamics completely.

2019 Slots for the Phillies:
6. $272,500
7. $213,300
8. $172,100
9. $153,600
10. $144,800

Previous thread is getting long. Add all your KBO and general baseball musings here. Here's hoping there's more soon.

Gotta think the Astros "love" is mostly hate from Dodger/Yankee fans. Still funny to see. Yankees have NJ and CT in case it's too small (and AR).

Seems like the NL getting the DH this year looking more and more possible. Will get Jay Bruce a lot more ABs I think

Yeah, Oregon is weird. I understand splitting CA. It's just based on Twitter traffic! Good move by whoever that guy is using "favorite team" to generate buzz

yeah, 'tweet about most' can be negative as much as positive, right?
