They weren’t on the same page about anything and it just came to a head. Good for Melvin. He’s a Bay Area native. Padres probably saved some money, too, instead of firing him and paying off his remaining contract. Given their local TV deal and insane payroll, they are probably in penny-pinching mode.

gehringer_2 Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 His glove hand may have been overrated as a shortstop, but I guess his right hand does OK signing checks. The Captain has done a good turn for his old hometown. Quote Ripken and Jeter were in Kalamazoo on Tuesday, Nov. 14, to unveil Jeter Family Field and Derek Jeter Field at Kalamazoo Central High School. The $5 million complex at Jeter’s alma mater was funded by the former Yankee’s Turn 2 Foundation. Ripken’s foundation, the Cal Ripken Sr. Foundation named after his late father, a former MLB manager — was instrumental in helping design and build the new baseball and softball complex. https://www.mlive.com/sports/2023/11/jeter-gives-back-from-hopping-fences-to-building-a-5m-baseball-complex-at-his-alma-mater.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oblong Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 why? It was fine the way it is. Are they trying to introduce drama? Is a few min per game worth it? Ultimately I guess I support whatever the players want. The owners? Don't trust them or their motives. Whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

casimir Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 Is MLB looking to add time in between innings, ie, commercial time, anf this will offset that? Anyone notice how NCAA games still go long despite the revamped running clock? Anyone notice how numerous and long commercial breaks are? Any adjustments made to that?

Or do this: 10th inning runner starts at first. 11th runner starts at 2nd 12 and on runner starts at 3rd Edited November 15, 2023 by ben9753 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cruzer1 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 (edited) Also, Blake Snell is overrated. Don't think he deserves this. He walks too many for my taste. I don't know how he won in such a blowout. Are the voters just looking at ERA? Edited November 16, 2023 by Cruzer1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
