Would a 1939 American dime be worth anything? Found one the other day in the back of my closet. Worth its silver content. |

A Cardinal player tested positive for the china virus so the Cards-Brewers game today was postponed. We can expect at least one or two players from each team to be reported as testing positive until they decide to cancel the rest of the season. The media and socialist democrats won't have it any other way. Professional and college sports are under attack as a way to continue scaring people and hurting the economy. Our inexperienced bullpen won;t hurt us if we can't play. We have seen bright spots like Blake Taylor and Blelak. Javier dominated the Dodgers for six innings and should get another start.

We need to listen to Dr. Fauci. Fauci is as truthful as Hillary and Obama and as intelligent as Maxine Waters and Sheila Jackson Lee. In short, he is a fake and supported Hillary in 2016. I don't trust one word that comes out of his mouth. |

They are destroying the game.......pitchers have to pitch to 3 hitters or finish the inning, starting extra innings with a runner on second base, and now, 7 inning games if a DH is necessary. Of course, Dusty is too stupid to use a bunt to win a game in extra innings. We had the ideal setup to win the Dodger game but failing to get a bunt down cost us the game. If they are going to keep on coming up with new rules, scrap the season. Getting rid of Manfred would be a good place to start fixing what is wrong with the game. His damn tinkering is killing it. |

I would rather cancel the season than play 7 inning games. The rosters are expanded, they should play 9 innings. Start the first game earlier in the day, or is this just about money?

They're going to try and do everything they can to get some type of season in. Let's at least appreciate that they're trying, even if we don't care for some of the temporary changes.

What we are seeing now is not baseball and it will get worse. Yes, it's about money, but, it's also about politics. |

this hasn't been baseball since the three-minimum batter rule was launched over the winter

We are not seeing baseball. This crap should be on Comedy Central......cardboard cutouts in the seats asking fans to donate money so they get their picture on one of them. What is worse is countless morons are doing it. Then, we have recorded fan noise piped in over the PA. This became a joke when it was decided that the games would be played without fans. Then, that damn fool, Manfred, started coming up with these asinine new rules that make a mockery of the game.. Players and managers are allowed to parade around in these BLM shirts and taking a knee during the anthem. Baseball is joining the NFL and NBA in being disgraceful for allowing players to show contempt and disrespect for our country. A piece of crap like Betts signs a $400 million deal and whines about being oppressed. Manfred and the owners all need to grow a pair and refuse to allow BLM shirts to be worn......suspend players who take a knee during the anthem. I guess the next thing we will hear is that MLB has joined the NBA and NFL in donating millions to these damn marxist BLM thugs. In short, play the game of baseball how it was intended to be played or stop it altogether. What we have is a damn disgrace.  |

It's temporary measures to try and get a season in while we're in the middle of a global pandemic. I'm glad they're trying anything to bring us as much as they can.

There has never been a point in starting this dumpster fire of a season. What's the point of a one week season?
As a great Jedi manager once said, "there's no trying in baseball"

Go ahead and cancel the season. This isn't even little league worthy.

The new rule led to the walkoff for sure. That’s a weak win.

The abundance of arm injuries is more than strange. Not having a proper ST has to be part of the problem. |

Are a majority of the teams having injury issues with pitchers?
I do feel not having a proper spring training has caused the issues, but if it’s not happening to many other clubs it makes me wonder if our guys weren’t taking care of themselves during the hiatus.

I am sure someone on here has already discussed this, so forgive me. Since Joe Smith opted out, do we still control his for the 2 years we signed him?
