would any baseball fans care if

[short]

the pirates royals and nationals all disbanded...all 3 teams are always celler dwellars far as standings go...the pirates avarage attendence is awful...same goes for the nationals and royals....when i watch sportscenter highlights on tv for the 3 teams the ballparks are 1/2 empty

 

[coondogg26]

i think people in Kansas City, Pittsburgh and Washington D.C would but outside of those 3 cities no. O btw baseball sucks

 

[Joey]

The natinals can cut but Pirates and Royals....They have to stay.

 

[Rich]

Well Tampa doesn't pull that many fans either

 

[P.E.]

SWITCH THE NATS. BACK TO THE EXPOS AND CALL IT A DAY,...ALL 3 STAY ,..OTHERWISE,...KEEP PIRATES AND ROYALS!....THOSE TEAMS ARE OL SCHOOL AND HAVE ALOT OF TEAM HISTORY!..GOOD PLAYERS CAME OUT OF THEM TEAMS TOO,.GEORGE BRETT,PARKER,STARGELL,BO JACKSON,DAVID CONE,U KNOW....

 

[MRTHECOSE]

pirates just got a fairly new stadium so i'd say no nats owned by mlb so that aint happening royals i have no opinion cuzz fuck the cheifs lol if that makes sense. but i got homies from kc so fuck the chiefs any damn way

 

[90'sBayPlayer]

Baseball is too watered down. The Nats should leave for sure. Teh Royals and the Pirates should stay tho. There should be brackets like euro soccer, winners and losers to make it more interesting.

 

[CHAPO GUZMAN]

Baseballs the best, fuck everyone else!

 

[prodigy91]

the nats gota go most of their players deserve to be on better teams

 

[CHAPO GUZMAN]

Nats should be a little more interesting to watch next season.. theyre still a fairly new team (used to be the Montreal Expos) I dont think people in D.C. really give a shit about baseball so it doesnt help

 

[90'sBayPlayer]

NFL Playoffs>NBA Playoff>MLB Playoffs

 

[ReKz]

MLB isn't contracting anytime soon...

nats owned by mlb so that aint happening

MLB owned the Expos (towards the end of their existence), but they sold the franchise when they relocated to Washington, D.C. The Nats also have a new stadium and the Royals are remodeling Kauffman...

 

[ArGenTin3]

Royals ain't going anywhere...The taxpayers just recently anted' up over a half billion dollars to upgrade the truman sports complex (arrowhead and kauffman stadium).

Givin' how shitty my Royals have been this season...they have still averaged over 20k fans a night. Royals fans are some loyal sons of bitches i can tell you that much. Try being a fan of the lousiest franchise in all of baseball since 85' and still be proud of them. We're still here and will always be here....I don't give a fuck!

Go Royals!

 

[short]

the pirates owner gets a big check from mlb for revenue sharing...instead of spendin the money dude just pockets the dollars

 

[coondogg26]

NFL>NBA>EPL>MLS>NHL>LA LIGA> uhhhh wut else is better then baseball uhhhh POP WARNER> WNBA>NCAA anything> TEE BALL>HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL......then MLB

 

[90'sBayPlayer]

^Coondogg, you forgot the whiffle ball world series.

 

[CHAPO GUZMAN]

MLB>>>>>> end of DISCUSSion.

 

[xpanther206]

The answer to the original question is....



YES



3 towns, 1 of which is in the 5th largest market in the country and 2 of which have an extremely rich baseball history in them. Those teams become competitive, they will do just fine.

Awful idea.

 

[KillaClown]

well, my Tigers need SOMEBODY to beat up on to get them out of a slump every so often.

I had higher hopes for KC this year, Nats are at least trying to build a squad, and the Pirates are coming up in the league with some good prospects (that one guy just hit 3 homers in one game as a ROOKIE, and runs fast as a mfkr) can't remember his name.

So yes, I would actually hate to see any franchise disband.

 

[DubbC415]

there have to be losers

short did u read the stat in the giants program that said that from 1993 to 2008 the Royals lost the most games in baseball? 1420. The Pirates came in second with 1419 losses.

they have good players to trade, good stadiums, good jerseys, and history.


plus i love the royals
