I love baseball, and everything about it. The problem is the game is being taken away from the fan. There are stadiums are being renamed for companies and sold to the highest bidder, and with it goes history. Is there a price on history? I doubt it and you have to change with the times, but what about the fan?
I don't blame the player. They hold for crazy amounts of money because they can and it’s out there. I say go get it. C.C. Sabathia is the best pitcher in the free agent market and I want him to get paid. All free agents are a product of the system. If your job let you have a chance at millions you would take it too.
MLB gets companies to sponsor everything from stadiums to jerseys and what does the fan get? Higher ticket prices, pay per view baseball, and ludicrous prices for jersey's hats and more. The players get paid, the teams get paid and the management gets paid, but the fan he pays. When it comes to higher ticket prices, the fan pays, when it comes to new stadiums the fan pays. So where does it stop?
Stop going to games to save money and you don't watch your team. The fan is in a lose/lose situation.
I officially announce myself as a free agent.
I am going to email every MLB team, the commissioner and anyone who will listen and see what team would like me as a fan.
We are all free agents and I invite others to follow suit.
It’s time to bring the game back to the fan.
