RIPPA Posted February 3 Author Share Posted February 3 16 hours ago, BobbyWhioux said: 30 years, time to extort a new stadium from the mayor's office To be fair - it is more just to extort more money from the state Maryland ear marked a large chunk of money (like $500 million) dedicated to keeping the Orioles in Baltimore (there is also a separate pool of money earmarked for the Ravens) As long as the Os were willing to keep agreeing to the extensions - Maryland didn't need to dip into the money. So this was Baltimore's way of saying "Hold up - let's get that money" The Angelos - for all their faults - know they have a good thing with Camden Yards. They just don't want to spend their own money to fix it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted February 9 Author Share Posted February 9 The Padres are weird They just gave Yu Darvish a 5 year, $90 million extension (he was already under contract for this year so if you see some place say 6 years, that is why) That means they will be paying Darvish until he is 41 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted February 13 Author Share Posted February 13 In addition to all the other rules changes happening - MLB’s Joint Competition Committee voted today to A) make the ghost runner a permanent thing (in regular season games) B) tweak position players pitching. Now can only happen either in extra innings or if it is the 9th inning and the team is up by 10 or more runs or trailing by 8 or more runs This ESPN article was written earlier today so it is quasi out of date already https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/35629997/mlb-new-2023-season-rules-shift-pitch-clock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
