apuszczalowski Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 11 hours ago, PromoTheRobot said: Well how many major league ballparks are sitting around unused? The idea of sharing a park was quite the long shot as well. Fenway Park doesn't have a massive clubhouse, so they built makeshift lockers in the concourses of the stadium. Could that not have been done at Sahlens Field? Could LED lights been installed in the past few weeks? Could bullpens have been moved to outside the outfield wall? I find it a little hard to accept that a park that is acceptable for Triple-A ball is that far from usable for MLB. I suspect it's more the players not wanting to be in a lesser facility, not that it can't be played in. Well they could spend a bunch of extra money to renovate another field for a temporary solution, or look to possibly work a deal to share a facility that's already up to the required standards. Pittsburgh only had 7 conflicting dates out of 60. And there are differences between a major league facility and an old triple A ball field. I find it funny that Pennsylvania and possibly Maryland are against this, they are already letting a team bring in teams from all over the country to do this it's no like they wouldn't be already doing this if the Jays weren't there.

Except you were the only one taking it as an insult and saying players didn't want to play there. They tried to get a better option, had agreements in place but ultimately lost out on those because the government's where the teams play refused to allow it.

stevestojan Posted July 24, 2020 Share Posted July 24, 2020 (edited) So, I know very little about baseball. And I could probably google this. But living here in Hoboken, I’ve now been to several Yankees games just because they have beer and hotdogs. Am I way off in saying that the Bisons field is significantly smaller than a MLB field? Will our new team, The Buffalo Baseball Team, just kill HR records? Edited July 24, 2020 by stevestojan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
