Eight death threats plague MLB | Tijuana News

If you look closely at the drama, there are eight threats to which poor baseball is exposed today: The lockout, the pandemic, Rob Manfred, American football, basketball, soccer, the Major League Baseball Players Association (MLBPA). ) and team owners.

Never before, in 151 years of Major League Baseball, has our favorite sport faced so much danger.

It all starts because ESPN and FOX, the pampered partners of Commissioner Manfred, no longer want to pay what they have contributed in recent years for broadcast rights. ESPN $1 billion per season and FOX $1.4 billion.

It would be the first time in the last 62 years that the amount paid for this reason is not raised, but lowered. ESPN and FOX allege how baseball has fallen in public preference.

A survey by the respected company “Gallup” has just reported that 37 out of 100 Americans prefer American football over any other sport; Likewise, basketball is in second place, with 11%; Major League Baseball ranks third, but with just 9%; and soccer is very close with 7%.

Now, at the end of this year, the Soccer World Cup will be played, so this sport is expected to surpass baseball and stay by that point, which will take MLB to last place in this group.

The decline of baseball is logical, given how badly it has been treated as a show. And the worst thing is that they continue to treat him.

After 50 years of clowning baseball in the American League, they will also spoil the National, with the designated hitter.

If they get through the ninth inning tied, they apply the Rule against extra innings, with the gift runner on second at the start of each inning.

Every pitcher is required to face no fewer than three batters, which kills the lefties vs. lefties and righties vs. righties strategy. Checking the videos of plays takes 10 or more minutes each, and besides, that eliminates the spectacular scenes of protests from managers, coaches and players.

I don’t want to continue reviewing such disgusting things against baseball, but I remind you that machines are being tested to eliminate umpires. Manfred, ESPN and FOX, deadly poison.

Thanks to life that has given me so much, even a reader like you.
