That is what I wondered. If no season what happens with service time.

Full service time will be awarded this season no matter what. So if they cancel 2020, Mookie Betts is a free agent having never played a regular season game for the Dodgers.

Semien may have played his last game as an A.

What crock of shit

Cant you just re-sign him?

oakland is poor. i doubt they offer him enough money to re-sign

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Yeah I get that. Well actually no, Oakland isn’t poor. The owner has plenty of money. They act poor. My point is just because service time will still be accrued for players it doesn’t preclude the A’s or any other team from re-signing their players. If they choose not to make a strong offer to re-sign then then that’s on them.

 

[Quid Pro Clowe]

The owners have money, but it's still a business. They have one of the worst tv deals in baseball and play in one of the worst stadiums. Once the new stadium is set in stone things will change. They want the current core to be in place when it opens.

Will they play in empty stadiums? Once they get the economics straitened out?

I don't see any fans at any sporting event until at least 2021. That's assuming there isn't a second wave breakout this winter...
