They could use UofA's field too, no?

This might be the best part of the whole proposal

i think they are going to be really strict about using facilities only in the phoenix metro area but i could be wrong

i really want to see this in place

Yeah, probably so. Just don't know if they can find 3 more with suitable dimensions and accommodations in the metro area.
Grand Canyon's dimensions could provide some interesting results if things aren't modified.

shite I want this to happen so bad to see players chilling in the stands eating hot dogs and peanuts.

I know there will be expanded rosters, but will they be able to call players up from the minors?
Posted on 4/7/20 at 4:34 am to RLDSC FAN
There would be absolutely zero reason they could give that would justify not televising every single game.

What minors?

Phoenix makes the most sense
10 spring training stadiums, Chase Stadium, two Arizona State baseball stadiums, and Grand Canyon baseball.
Thats 14 stadiums, so you would only need one double header a day for all 30 teams to play. That leaves you plenty of opportunities to play scheduled doubleheaders to get numbers up.

What is being described is not baseball.

And this is already getting some pushback

Buster Olney Retweeted Buster Olney @Buster_ESPN One thing that MLB and the Players Association must weigh as they discuss the plan to return to work in May: LINK … How will they handle the cases of players who refuse to participate?

Give it a rest. You and mcBiggio, geez. Babies.

Everything is going to get pushback
But players want their high salaries
Then media wants owners to pay MiLB players
Then there’s the amateur draft
Then there’s international signing
If I’m an owner and y’all want me to pay all that money? We playing.
