It's been nice having the pandemic enforce my disinterest in this year's Red Sox but now I guess that's back to my focus. Losing our only decent pitching to a friggin positive COVID test does not help, either. I remain in disbelief that a team like the Red Sox actively sent away a player like Betts.

The reason for it is obviously terrible, but I'm enjoying this weirdness. This is the kind of stuff you hear stories about from back in the day, where even major league teams were held together with bubble gum and duct tape.

Call it Covid Camp 2020 for all I care, let the branding whizzes figure it out. I don't have a problem with doing strange things as needed to salvage a season, but we're way into asterisk territory now. (Also how are they still trying to figure this out hours before the first pitch???)

BBTV Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 I totally understand that international travel is a no-no right now, but maybe just for this one year, since America is now familiar with Korean baseball, have the winner of the "MLB Tournament" play the winner of the KBO in the "World Series" - and if the Korean team wins lol, they go down in the MLB books as the actual WS champion. There's lots of reasons why I think international tournaments between non-All Star teams are not on the level, but F it. We may never have another pandemic in our life time. Let's try to have a little fun. "The views expressed here are mine and do not reflect the official opinion of my employer or the organization through which the Internet was accessed."
