Alla fine è 392/12, ovvero in realtà 365/11 + l'attuale 27/1 (che alla fine sarà sui 10 milioni effettivi)
Il contratto ha importanti signing bonus nei primi anni per limitare l'impatto della pandemia e di eventauli diatribe tra lega e MLBPA

The Pennsylvania Department of Health announced today that it will not allow the Toronto Blue Jays to play their shortened 2020 season at PNC Park in Pittsburgh.

Quindi, la stagione inizia tra poche ore ed ancora non si sa quale sarà la "casa" dei Blue Jays. Molto bene.

Baltimore si offre di ospitare i Blue Jays.
Unica altra alternativa sarebbe giocare sempre in trasferta.
Battendo per secondi quando avrebbero dovuto essere in casa.

MLB players' union OKs playoff expansion for 2020, sources say

The Major League Baseball Players Association has agreed to a plan to expand the playoffs to 16 teams for the 2020 season, sources have told ESPN's Marly Rivera.

A playoff expansion still needs the final approval of MLB owners, sources said.

All second-place teams in the six divisions would now qualify for the playoffs, sources said. Then the seventh and eighth teams in each league would be chosen by best record among other teams.

The first round of the playoffs in each league will be four three-game series with all games played at the higher seed's home stadium. The rest of the rounds will be their customary length: The two Division Series in each league will be five-game series, while the AL and NL Championship Series and World Series will be seven-game series.

If a 16-team format is adopted, it would include a televised postseason-seeding show in which top-seeded teams pick their first-round opponents, a source told ESPN's Buster Olney on Thursday.

L'ideale per limitare gli spostamenti :forza:
Ridicolo che l'MLB non se ne sia occupata.

The Athletics were the first team to introduce cardboard cutout fans and, as part of the promotion, if your cutout gets hit with a foul ball, they'll send you the ball.

Non sapevo di questa chicca, incredibile e bellissimo. :forza:

Bella idea, molto simpatica. Certo, coi prezzi che chiedono per ogni cardboard, dovrebbero mandare l'autore stesso dell'HR a portartela a casa! :forza:

Il problema di questa idea è che ne forzeranno il successo mediatico e la terranno anche per il futuro.
