@GoatedXOpinions BC Place can absolutely not do baseball now give how much it has been renovated since it has opened. No ownership group wants to spend 4b minimum to get paid in CAD and payout USD.

@StrongbowArcher Just because you dont believe its possible doesnt mean it is.
This is t a new idea. Theres been people that have wanted a team in vancouver for decades. Bc place was built with this in mind.
Given the baseball craze in country atm, its a good time to explore it.
English
@GoatedXOpinions Just because the Mayor said someone is interested doesn’t mean that’s true. Until writers or insiders with credible sources can say there is an interested party with the cash and connections for this I won’t believe it.
English
@StrongbowArcher @SadClubCommish Its a long shot, but definitely not 0. This isnt a new idea either. Theres already someone interested.
English
@GoatedXOpinions @SadClubCommish Factor in stadium fees, infrastructure for a spring complex + milb teams and facilities. 0% chance this happens.
English
@SadClubCommish Thats to buy an established team. The expansion fee is around 2.2
English
@durantjay37 @MrPickle2410 There are just way too many hurdles for MLB and Van to jump through, the stadium is only a small part. Don’t get your hopes up. It’s all smoke.
English
@StrongbowArcher @MrPickle2410 Can’t say 0% till something happens with that parcel of land.
English
Pls make this happen. I don’t like the Blue Jays because they play in Toronto
🤢@phantomforprez

@jsake19 @DoTheDrew_17 @sportsrage 😂😂😂 BCP has changed so much since than. No way you can say that baseball can be played there.
English
The would play in bc place ......and the blue jays dont own a market that is 3000 miles away from them
Mike Martignago@MikeMartignago
Who’s the owner? Where they building a stadium? I’m sure the Canada Blue Jays would just roll over and give away a chunk of their market!
English
@JoshuaHowsam Retrofit BC Place. Move the Caps out to their own soccer specific stadium.
English
I have no idea where they would put a baseball stadium
Kenneth Chan@iamkennethchan
BREAKING... Mayor Ken Sim is calling for the launch of a bidding process to bring a Major League Baseball expansion franchise to Vancouver. "We see an opportunity to position Vancouver as the next home for a franchise." #MLB #bcpoli #vanpoli dailyhive.com/vancouver/vanc…

Coors is not nearly as good for homers as people believe
It massively boosts doubles and triples, not as much the long ball
Pikkit@pikkitsports
Yordan Alvarez played 3 games at Coors Field and hit 0 home runs. Everybody lost money.

@CEO_RPOEnjoyers @TheConnorPils @GlobalScouting_ Sorry, you don’t think centers develop a better post game in the NBA than in college?
English
English
“You could put an NBA role-player on a 16-seed and they’d win it all”
Reminder that this dude played with FOUR (4) OTHER NBA DRAFT PICKS on a 1-seed and didn’t even MAKE the championship game.
The list is a lot smaller than you think.

COOPER FLAGG 50 PIECE The first teenager to ever do it
English
@CEO_RPOEnjoyers @TheConnorPils @GlobalScouting_ You think bigs don’t get better after they turn 20?
English
@TheConnorPils @GlobalScouting_ Cooper Flagg is what maybe a top 50 player in the nba maybe?
You also gotta consider a lot of bigs you wouldn’t think of get even better relative to college because college is more of a post centric game

@maxman871 @JohnMassingale4 @FSKPart3 Who in college basketball is able to guard wemby without help??
English
@JohnMassingale4 @FSKPart3 yeah but we saw how they constantly doubled or had a help defender near edey which lead to open shots. though ill say if a team has a guy who can just 1v1 wemby like how clingan did against edey in the championship they would be in trouble.
English
Yes. And they would win it easily.
Chalkboard@ChalkboardHQ
Would Miami Ohio win the Natty if they had Wemby on their team? 👀
English
@StrongbowArcher @FB_FilmAnalysis Honestly Baltimore just realized that their QB has a $74 million dollar cap hit this year and next year for a QB who has more turnovers than touchdowns in the playoffs. They lost all their in house players in free agency and now are in full panic mode. The cats out the bag
English
What’s the bar for a player recovering from surgery?
Dianna Russini@DMRussini
Maxx Crosby did not pass his physical today, per sources. The Ravens get their first round picks back.
English
@ParkingTicket05 @FB_FilmAnalysis Do you think they didn’t know? Or maybe when they saw up close they didn’t want to risk 2 first round picks?
English
@StrongbowArcher @FB_FilmAnalysis The entire world knew he just had surgery less than 2 months ago. If Baltimore didn’t they are retarded
English
@ParkingTicket05 @FB_FilmAnalysis Or maybe Crosbys injury history caused him to fail the physical??
English
@FB_FilmAnalysis At least the entire NFL now knows not to do business with Baltimore.

@DTG616 @YankeeWRLD Fix the revenue sharing as well and boom that easy.
English
Unless the owners think the MLBPA is illiterate they shouldn’t even bother proposing this. This is the definition of a non-starter
Just Baseball@JustBB_Media
Early projections suggest a proposed salary cap will be around $260-$280 million, along with a floor of $140-$160 million, per @JonHeyman

@CFL @AMSOILINC You did it for a reason you’re pissing off a cow Calgarian idiot your account no counting Calgary out of the playoffs. We didn’t start yet. That’s a ridiculous.
English
@JasonBrunk @Riley_Gates Why hasn’t he been able to develop them?
English
@Riley_Gates Tang was correct. He’s been protecting and making excuses for these kids all year. He’s obviously choosing the incorrect players for his system…but he’s still figuring out his system. Kids getting paid like adults…they need to play like adults.
English
“Didn’t Tang recruit these people? He’s in his fourth season, so he didn’t inherit any of these people. … The team he’s got now, he clearly hates.”
Wow. Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon go scorched earth on Jerome Tang on PTI.
English
@StatBoy_Steven @RyanO22000 You’re so arrogant man. Define senior level bc that’s ambiguous as well.
English
With team Canada announcing their team for the Olympics, here's a sobering stat:
Of all players drafted first overall since 1985, only 2 have never represented their country at senior level.
#NYR Alexis Lafrenière (2020) and Alexandre Daigle (1993).

@ChrisKFilms @Film_Never_Lies Where would the Kelowna team play?
English
@Film_Never_Lies Forget just 1 teams. Expand my 3-5 teams in Canada:
Halifax
Quebec City
Windsor
Kelowna
Saskatoon
Let’s get to 12-14 teams
