No season at all this year and I'm not sure they could climb out of that hole. Interest has been waning and they're not pulling in the younger generations they need to keep the sport alive. This feels like a salvage attempt just to keep the league from falling off everyone's radar.

I was a bigger baseball fan than football fan growing up. Early to mid-90s, that was my game. It's sad to see how it's dropped off for so many over the years. I know I can't get my kids interested at all. And they're not even on phones/video games. It's just that there is so much in life to compete, and baseball is a long game played on a lot of hot days.

I'd love to see them find a way to bring it back in relevance and get the younger fans engaged!

TF you talking about?

Waning interest doesn't mean no interest; Baseball will continue to be a top 3 team sport in NA (I believe it is #2), forever.

I'm in Toronto and even with the Championship last year, fans of the Jays are still ALMOST at the level of the Raptors.
