Should have done something like you play the same team 10 games straight (5 home/5 away). Cuts down on travel and makes it easier to contain outbreaks from spreading to multiple teams.
-
You invent a time machine and you don't let every good reliever from the past 3 years walk for nothing while also trying to build a bullpen completely out of AAAA Iowa Shuttle hacks Who are you referring to?
-
How does the bullpen get fixed?

Marlins shouldnt play for 2 weeks. Phillies at least a week minimum. Probably 10 days to be safe. If you let the Phillies come back this weekend and then they pop a positive test(s) and they go on to spread it to the Blue Jays or whoever they play, baseball is fucked. Make up some of the games with doubleheaders if you want, but just proceed knowing some teams will play less games than others. And that’s okay. If you can’t be in the top 8 teams in winning % despite playing more/less games than others, then you don’t deserve to be in the playoffs. This whole season has one giant asterisk on it, anyway. Why risk it to try to squeeze in a few extra games? And whoever was supposed to play the Phillies can just play whoever was supposed to play the Marlins.

Yes, look at his fWAR if you want a good laugh. -0.2 over the last 5 seasons. Projected for another negative year this season.
-
Correct.

If anyone has Sprint/T-Mobile, you can sign up for MLB.tv for free today. If in Chicagoland, you should be able to use a VPN to bypass the blackout restrictions. F U Comcast/Marquee.

Exactly. Surface contact transmission is minimal, if at all, over an extended period of time.

Summer Camp Exhibitions Game Thread

Can't say for sure, but spring training games are generally blackout-free. Maybe even CSN since a Sox game. But without Len and JD.
-
Tonight’s exhibition game on ESPN will be blacked out in Chicago, right?
-
Anyone watching the scrimmage?
-
Would be nice if Comcast and the Cubs could reach an agreement

What were your thoughts on Luka?

Lebron, Noah, Rose, and Deng or Taj off the bench easily beats every EC team and wins at least 3/4. I don’t even know who plays what position, but it doesn’t matter. The Bulls were so close to the big 3 Heat and then you remove the best player on the planet from them and give him to the Bulls. No chance for anyone in the East. Same goes for getting Wade and Bosh. 1+ of any of the 3 gives us at least 1 championship.
-
Those 5 plus ring chasers would have surely won every championship until they decided they didn’t want to play together anymore.

Hopefully we see a schedule soon. I could see the Cubs and White Sox playing all 6 of their games back to back. Also, there are two 100 loss teams in the AL central, Sox and Twins win total will probably be inflated in a 60 game season. Wouldn't be surprised if both AL wildcards come from there. I really want to see which AL Central teams we are losing games against in order to play the Sox 6 times instead of 4. If the Cardinals get more games against the Royals/Tigers than we do, that could make the difference in such a very short season. Are they not just doing 4 games vs everyone?
-
So we only play the NL central and AL central? Good thing the AL central is, mostly, crap.
-
I was a proponent for expanded playoffs with such a short season, but oh well.

80 game season with expanded playoffs, starting in July
ChiCubsFan replied to OleMissCub's topic in General Baseball Talk
Not as special, but yes, to me. -
This has been the best couple months of Bulls basketball since, when, 2012?
-
I kinda really want Ball.

ChiCubsFan replied to OleMissCub's topic in General Baseball Talk
Yeah, thanks. I became unlazy and just read it myself too. Agree with the people then. Is there talk the owners want it reduced further if no fans in the stands? -

What was the original agreement? I missed that. But why shouldn’t they have their pay reduced at a proportion equal to the amount of time they are working? People all over the country are being furloughed, hours cut, laid off, etc. And hazard pay? Most Healthcare workers and first responders who have been working during the worst of it aren’t getting hazard pay. -
16. I believe plan is to add the extra playoff teams this year and then 17 games 2021 season. Though a lot of this was pre-COVID so things may have changed.
