I think it will actually fit H2H perfectly. We actually divide the season into 5 different 5 week seasons. We have two divisions (upper-Hobbs & lower-Ueker). Top three from Ueker move up to Hobbs and bottom three from Hobbs move down. This happens for four "seasons". Then we seed each team based on total time in the Hobbs division and have a playoffs for the last 5 weeks. It works perfectly.
He should start watching the game. It will improve his instincts tremendously and he will grow his knowledge of in game situations which will help his overall game play. If he has any desire to play in high school or higher having improved instincts will be a huge benefit to play time and ability to play at higher levels.
Without DH, we never would have seen one of the best pitching performances in World Series history.. Jack Morris, 10 innings for the win in game 7. 
I worded it wrong. Sorry everyone.
No way he pitches past the 8th inning if there wasn't a DH.
Same problem for any sportFeeling... 5% chance of a season.. Training facilities barely open up and players test positive so they shutdown the facilities..
What happens when All players and personnel start interacting and a team personnel test positive. Do they quarantine all players while they Sanitize everything that person was at? And besides testing all teams members, are they also going to test their family members? Or are they putting the team members in seclusion during the season?
Just have no idea how they can play and keep everyone Covid free..
Due to quarantine, I'm attempting my first ever 162 game play through. Im currently at the AS break.
Only sport I see doing anything right now positive is Soccer. Just don't get how they've been able to handle this but our American sports leagues continue to ##### and moan with one another. I've already said the Owners F'd this up from the start with their disrespectful first offer. I think the players are doing this now to spite them. Don't be surprised with the new CBA renewal coming up Baseball isn't played next year either.
Dude I've done that a number of times. When I had more time and working less I would do a full season as well as be every team for the first season and make all the roster moves. I'd wait for Operation Sports to do the Full Minors roster so I had the actual prospects and then just fix guys I thought who should be in the game they didn't have. Id do every teams line up and rotation to the bullpen accordingly to the depth chart as well. It was a lot of time and took a lot of patients but the end results were quite rewarding. Thanks to being able to give players injuries I was able to make it as realistic as possible besides the outcomes.
Nope. If the owners had kept their original deal none of this happens. The when and where statement allows them to still file a grievance. The awful deal proposed by the owners removes the grievance. The players would be stupid to take that deal.
There's a reason the owners are forcing the "waive your right to a grievance" clause.
Both sides are greedy. The owners are more greedy. The players are crybabies. They all suck.
I don't think MLB would survive a two year hiatus. Taking one year off due to greed (whichever side you want to blame) won't sit well with fans struggling to make ends meet in the middle of a pandemic. Millionaires and billionaires fighting over their multi-million dollar salaries is not going to sit well with fans. Remember the 94 strike? Took a long time to come back from that, it it wasn't half as heinous as the press would be on this one.
2020.. See you in 2021..
I think most fans right now are taking the players side on this right now. Owners want this season to happen but they know they are at a loss and without games being played they lose the TV Revenue. Players get paid no matter what. A lot of stories I'm seeing of top players paying the salaries of organization staff and guys like Bryce Harper are helping some of the Minor guys out financially. The owners are just laying people off or furloughing them left and right. When fans are given all this info who do you think they will side on?
Hail Mary by the owners. This is desperation. This is the desperation pull the goalie in the final minute and hope and pray. Owners know if they can't agree to something in the 1st week of July they are out this year
As I mentioned above, I don't see how they get even 10 games in after seeing how many positive test came back just from training..
to think they can get a season in until a vaccine is available.
I would assume any player that tests positive cannot play for some period of time (2 weeks?). Obviously has huge implications on the talent level we see on the field. The whole season is going to be a mess and no one is going to consider it a real season anyway. Might as well try all the wacky things they were thinking about trying and see what sticks. Robo umps, no DH, player starts on 2B in extra innings, pitch clock, players can steal 1B, etc. Whatever, try anything.As I mentioned above, I don't see how they get even 10 games in after seeing how many positive test came back just from training..
What happens if say 10 players test positive? Just forfeit games, postpone ( No room for that in the 60 day schedule), or play without the players?
Imagine they somehow to get through the 60 games, get to the world series and half of one team is positive..
IMO, it is
It hasn’t been that crazy for soccer. Some guys have tested positive and had to stay away for a while. The rest of the team plays. The same will probably happen here.As I mentioned above, I don't see how they get even 10 games in after seeing how many positive test came back just from training..

Except Europe has done a FAR better job flattening the curve. We are doing a crappy job over here, unfortunately, and I think that plays a big role.
Players get paid Monthly or Bi-Monthly by direct deposit while the regular season is going on. During Spring Training and the Postseason they get various allowances. It’s all in the CBA.
No not really their plan was to not pay the players even a fraction of what they are currently offering. Their first offer in the beginning was so disingenuous and disrespectful as well. The owners lose more with no season considering they already lost gate/merch/food revenue and no games means no TV revenue either. The players know this fully well.
I agree 110% with you here. Just call it and comeback next year. It's unfortunate but this is something that out of their hands. Also with all the positive tests in some major cities going up where teams play what happens if a whole team test positive? I found this thread tweet from the Soccer Discussion thread. Don't pay attention too much to the Putin owning the one club and the club that is saying oh well you are SOL. Pay more attention to the impact restarting early and playing in an area hotspot for this
Read the link above this tweet. Half a soccer club in Russia tested positive. The club that tested positive was fighting for the top league spot currently occupied by the club that has strong ties to the Russian Government and Putin. The Team that told them toughAs I mentioned above, I don't see how they get even 10 games in after seeing how many positive test came back just from training..

is a feeder club for the top club btw. Rostov the club that tested positive played their youth kids. Yes the oldest player was 19 yrs old most avg was 16 and 17. They got destroyed 10-1 and leaving them well out of now competing for the top spot in the RPL.
If theirs no football come fall I might have to be on 24/7 watch. That'd be a huge loss. The only thing holding me together right now is the fact there's still soccer being played
Cool. So half the team goes on the disabled list and we get a bunch of Minor league players for 10 to 14 days.. Athat's what the disabled list is for
season becomes a 
I think they are going to have to expand the 40 man roster.............Cool. So half the team goes on the disabled list and we get a bunch of Minor league players for 10 to 14 days.. A
