So the Marlins Park name change isn't even the worst name change in the city

The soon-to-be-former American Airlines Arena (we call it the Triple-A down here), is going to be renamed FTX Arena. That's the Miami Heat's arena. The naming rights were purchased last week by a Chinese crypto outfit that isn't even authorized to operate within the US.

This is especially galling considering the Dodgers stance last year. The players reportedly took a very serious stance on covid protocols because they felt doing so was a prerequisite for winning. They didn't want an outbreak to derail their season. But now apparently this logic doesn't apply to vaccination.

If the Cubs are going to tank and dump all their fun players at least bring back my dude for a reunion. It's not like Starlin isn't used to playing on terrible Cubs teams.

Roommate posited that Mookie may simply not want to make any kind of vaccine comment because the Dodgers have vocal anti-vaxxer(s) in the clubhouse and he doesn't want to start poo poo. But idk even if that's the case it's a really bad look and if these guys actually want to play ball and win they should be coming together to dogpile any dipshits in clubhouse trying to push anti-vax poo poo.

Agreed, it's a bad look and doesn't bode well if the whole clubhouse is bending over backwards to accommodate Bauer's bullshit.

Wasn't Mookie also one of the guys who was saying how they wanted covid positive Justin Turner out on the field? Bauer might not be changing the team culture at all or need to be catered to specifically.

Wasn't there a reporter that tweeted a few months ago that they asked a bunch of baseball players if they would get the vaccine and well over half said no? MLB is full of chuds.

They all said they wanted JT out on the field, I don't think that correlates to a position on the vaccine or the virus in general. They'd all been in a supposed bubble with JT for like 3 weeks at that point. I think most of those guys were ok complying with the protocols all season because they saw it as a necessary precondition for winning a championship (there were articles written about this claiming the Dodgers clubhouse specifically took things more seriously than many other teams right from the start last year). Once that goal was finally realized, particularly in the euphoria of the moment, they didn't care about covid protocols. It wasn't great, but it was an understandable human reaction to the circumstances. Thankfully no one else appears to have been infected by that incident.

But now we're at the start of another season, one in which they claim to have a collective goal of becoming the first team to repeat in two decades. I would have expected they'd see a similar need to be diligent about avoiding an outbreak in pursuit of that goal.

And it’s not just the chuds. Many pro athletes are extremely superstitious and prone to believing in unscientific bullshit when it comes to medicine, that has to correlate well with anti-vax mentality.

Both of these are true, the Mets deal is fair and Lindor has every right to see what free agency holds. That being said, I don't think Lindor's going to get that much more by going into free agency - especially with a potential labor stoppage coming.

I hope he has an MVP quality season either way.
