Baseball’s success took a big step back for a bit. Doing this a second time could be disastrous.

A look at fan rage from 1994 MLB strike, and those who never really came back

Baseball is currently in danger of systematic failure. They’re just about there.

I think that’s overly dramatic. MLB is definitely completely mishandling this current situation

Not necessarily. There was a huge drop in interest after the strike.

Billionaires and millionaires arguing over money is a bad look right now

The demise of baseball has been predicted for years and years. Things will

It's not going to be a 162-game MLB season. It's likely to be between 50-81
