Rob Manfred, commissioner of baseball, and hater of baseball, decided yesterday that he would prefer less baseball. We all knew he had this preference already, but this time he decided to do something about it. Every team was scheduled to open the season March 31, as this fake news article says with certainty. None of those games will happen, according to the Baseball Hating Fred Man.
Hours earlier, just as Tuesday was beginning, Antihero Bob was fed a story that indicated that a deal was close (without anybody moving), and could be hammered out prior to the (fake) deadline.
