Fellow Managers, 

The Commissioner’s Office of Baldelli’s Modern Life is actively monitoring the lockout situation between owners and players in Major League Baseball — in fact, we’re considering writing a letter urging them to come to their senses. America needs perfect games, booyas, hotdogs, and brewskis, and BML needs one dang uninterrupted season. Is that too much to ask?

Until we know the outcome of MLB’s collective bargaining agreement, this office can’t in good conscious collect league dues. If Commissioner Manfred shortens the season beyond April, we will likely cut down league dues. I want to avoid having another exhibition season, and we will unless the 2022 season is shortened considerably (think All-Star break).  

For now, please read about the proposed rule changes that I have in mind for 2022 on the league rules roadmap. Feel free to discuss in this thread.
