The current mlb commissioner.
He has done nothing in the name of the game.
He has made the mlb all star game pay to play which means only teams that can prove they can afford to host it will get to host it.
He has even said he wanted to start this in his first year but since two teams were guaranteed the game he would implement this in his third year.
How many times do you think people will watch the game at fenway park or yankee stadium or dodger stadium before they start not watching at all.
Do you really think the diamondbacks will host it. Arizona in july. Yea never going to happen.
He has gotten rid of the home field advantage in the world series which was given to the league that won the all star game.
He has made it that a pitcher faces at least three batters and can not be pulled for any reason.
He has shortened the roster from 40 to 28.
Let me tell you something if your team is out of the playoffs and has no chance of getting in come september the only reason people go to your games is so they can see the next batch of players. You take that away and the fans will stay away.
He is also putting netting up from foul pole to foul pole just because people who are too stupid to pay attention have gotten tapped by things going into the stands.
This is because people who willingly and were not forced to sit in certain seats in the lower sections chose to do so and it is also because people are to busy looking at their phones.
If he does this he needs to put it all around the outfield wall as well and paint a line on the netting and say if a ball goes over this line on the netting it is a homerun, since it is only a matter of time before someone complains about getting hurt by a homerun ball.
Then he needs to put up netting to protect the upper decks from balls as I have seen balls land in the upper decks all the time.
He is also forcing the time between innings to go quicker which at the present time is 1:30 and he is trying to get that down to 1:00 and is trying to force tv companies to shorten commercial breaks.
He is also proposing having the team that is behind placing a man on second base automatically without coming to bat while at the same time is denying the team that is ahead the same thing.
He claims he is doing all this to get more fans in the game yet he and the owners are too stupid to realize that he is driving fans away.
After this virus is gone if it ever will be there is no way that the fans will flock back to the game. They will always be weary of other people and will practice safe distancing on their own which means less fans in the stands.
Also he is thinking of either getting rid of 42 milb teams or every milb team.
What are they going to do draft players from high school and college and put them in mlb right away.
Also milb does not have to pay the players anything.
Ever since the tax law was pushed through in 2017 it scrapped the fair wage law from milb players.
So now the owners can force the players to play for nothing. Like the A's
