I'm surprised all of these mother fuckers didn't fight much today.... 

What's there to fight about?   The players have agreed to honor the March 26th deal and are waiting for Ownership to tell them where, when, and for how long. 

Now you as a fan are left to wait on the truthful nature of the owners.

Again, I miss baseball... but if there isn't a season, it won't ruin my life.  I'll be disappointed, but I'll get over it.  It's hard for me to get worked up over something out of my control. I don't like what's happening to the game I enjoy at all.  It sucks.  I don't care who the blame belong to.  It just sucks.

 

Same here. Getting worked up over things out of my control is the reason I'm on heart medication now. I'm too old for this crap. The one thing I will miss is watching Trout. Maybe Rendon. But that's about it at this point. I just want to enjoy the years remaining to me. Screw the players and the owners and the commissioner.

That meme is a permanent one.   That's one short-sighted, or recluse, person who came up with that drink cup. 

It would be perfect if it was a Woody drink cup instead.

People won't be happy at all not seeing Trout play right now. I can say that about numerous of other players right now as well. Judge, Cole, Ohtani, Rendon, and Betts. Imagine if Trout falls short of 700 career home runs and hit like 690 and miss like 2 seasons due to stupid BS like what we have currently going on. ******* be placed next to his name. Same can be said for Fred McGriff. Would have had at least 500 home runs if it wasn't for the you know what.

Yes I’m extremely concerned about 2030.

ManlessFred is Otto Meyer and the owners are the rest of them.

I'm younger than this old fart /\/\/\  but I've been going through these labor struggles with baseball all my life.  This stuff will never change in my lifetime.  I stopped worrying about it decades ago.  Play or don't play.  Sun is going to come up either way.

Lol.

So it was a negotiation?  That’s weird. 

[fan_since79]

"Closing in on an agreement..."

...which could be dashed to pieces in a minute. So much greed and arrogance by most of the parties.

Cautiously optimistic.
