Bringing Showalter back to MLB Network is worthless. He doesn't answer shit when asked. He hee haws around every conversation. He fucking sucks.

Better than the other assclowns on there, especially Harold.

So KC voted down the stadium? Baseball should be downtown, period.

They didn't vote no on the stadium. They voted down a 40 yr continuation of a 3/8 cent sales tax to help fund it. Ownership of the Royals and the Chiefs have done a shit job of letting the community know just what they want to do and really rushed this vote. They still have 6-7 years before the lease expires and maybe they can get their shit together and come up with a proposal that doesn't appear to be such a blatant cash grab.

Were you dropped on your head this morning? The vote to let the A's play in Vegas starting in 2028 was already approved, but they cant play there until they have a stadium. The Tropicana's last day of operations in Las Vegas was this week as its being demolished to make way for get this.......a MLB baseball stadium.

You should go catch a game at that Sacramento stadium. You can see MLB caliber play (from  the visiting team anyway) in a smaller stadium, likely for a cheaper price than most stadiums. I could see catching a Braves game there in the summer and then heading to Tahoe for a few days. Would make for a good long weekend.

Even so the BAL attendance is not impressive.

9th from the bottom last year.

Not to bring logic into this but Baltimore actually is one of the higher attended teams when it comes to per capita attendance (also Milwaukee and Colorado normally).  

(of course this caps teams that sellout a lot of games because they potentially would have even more attending if they could fit them in, but it also begs the question why large cities don't sell out every single game of the season every single year since the population is so high there)

Only averaging 21k this year though 6 games. In reality, Baltimore is a pretty shitty market for baseball. Wrong demographics.
