I thought that they did have to, but then Joe Torre was hired by the Dodgers without much of an interview process. Am I confusing the MLB with the NFL?
Yesterday the diamondbacks hit 4 straight homers against the brewers to tie a MLB record..who were the other teams that have done that too?
I am scared of flying and i know some mlb players also have that fear(Chipper Jones)..
So anyone know how many times these guys leave their life in the hands of the pilot at 35,000 feet in the air during the mlb season?
I doubt teams ride the bus for 3-5 hr trips.
Let’s say if the Dodgers have to go to S.F. that is a long drive so they still take the airplane?
what mlb teams have the most playoff appearances please answer with the top 5 teams thanks.

Since I’ve been in New York, I’ve been to a several Cyclones & Bison games. Just wondering though..do you support just the mlb team or the minor league team? I support the minor league teams cause they are the future after all (given the farm systems are good) But what about you guys (and girls, think i saw a few
?!?
Thanks, Jandy. I live here and their fans made it VERY clean they won.
What are the MLB teams that are so bad and awful that even if you lived to be 100 years old, they will never be contenders.
My Picks:
- Chicago White Sox
- Chicago Cubs
- Milwaukee Brewers
- Kansas City Royals
- Baltimore Orioles
- Houston Astros
I noticed that the owners of these particular teams have absolutely no intrest in fielding a .500 team let alone a playoff contender. If they just want to suck money out of people’s pockets then why dont they just become an Illinois politician
Hi,
I am looking for the contact info for the 30 teams in major league baseball.
Does any one know of a website that would list the PR departments phone or email address. MLB.com only offers contact info for "Major League Baseball" not the individual teams.
Thanks
I have mlb 2k9 for the xbox 360, a game littered with bugs as we all know. The patch seems to help some of the issues that have been well documented but I’m having an issue that appears to be unique. I have my action replays set to OFTEN and hurry-up baseball OFF yet when, after a great play, the game goes to show the replay weird stuff happens. Most of the time, especially on replays of hits, the team emblem scrolls across the screen as it should before the replay, yet it never actually shows the play! Literally 1 second later the 2k logo scrolls across and goes back to the game. Most of my replays show nothing more than the batter step into the box and then that’s it! Also, on home run replays, the video lasts for about 10 seconds, but only shows the part of the ballpark where the ball was hit to……FOR TEN SECONDS! No highlight of the batter swinging, the pitcher pitching or anything else. Just a ten second look at the outfield wall until a ball flies over it at the end. Some replays show guys just standing in the dugout that have nothing to do with the previous play or fans in the stands. Can someone at least tell me if they have had this issue? Out of all the problems with this game, this is one that I have not heard anyone mention. HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the Cubs won the World Series, yup, it’s been over 100 years since the last time the Cubs won the World Series, obviously the MLB was very different back then, how many teams were there at the time?
it was the dead-ball era
is winning the world series back then, over a 100 years ago, considered nothing by today’s standards? is that like winning a division or just a pennant?
Please list your 5 teams, and after your list, explain why you picked those MLB baseball teams, your picks for the 5 worst MLB baseball teams to cheer for, and I bet that all the teams have fans, even the ones that are at the bottom of the barrel. I am for sure, my top 2 teams would be, and they be the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox. And I know people that cheer for both teams, that are either fans of the Cubs or White Sox, or more like White Sucks.
I know many teams were in other leagues before the MLB was established, I’m just curious to know where each 30 teams stand oldest to newest. Thank you
Does it ever happen that a team would trade veterans for a slew of draft picks? Probably not so much in MLB, huh?
I don’t understand why MLB seems to schedule an off day for a lot of teams the day after opening day. It’s the only time I can think of that teams will have an off day in the middle of a series. It also seems like a waste of a day off. Could they really need a rest after just 1 game? Does anybody have an idea as to why they schedule it this way? I noticed several teams have a day off tomorrow and the Cardinals have had the second day of the season off for the past several years, this one included.
I recall reading somewhere that there is a financial incentive to MLB teams to finish over .500, even if they don’t make the playoffs. I can’t find any more details, however. Thanks in advance!
Every year, MLB teams miss the playoffs by a couple games. I’ve always wondered, ‘why in basketball do they play only 80-ish games in a season, yet half the league makes the playoffs? And in football, they play 16 weeks, and six teams from each conference make the playoffs.
In baseball, the teams play almost every single day. Shouldn’t more teams be rewarded for their hard work? I know it would be breaking tradition to change the playoff system but what would you think of it if they did?
Like Dodgers play Rockies in El Paso, TX.
Yankees play Blue Jays in Vancouver, BC…..
Just to benefit those fans who live in the cities without any MLB teams….
Will it work?
Is there a database/website that shows an MLB team’s longest winning and losing streaks in any given year?
A lap jersey is a disposable cover that keeps food off your clothes that looks like a game jersey with pro NFL, NBA,and MLB team logos on it.
MLB Batting helmets team logo covered in tobacco spit or worse, fecal matter. Sorry, it looks hiddeous
When do mlb teams wear alternate uniforms? There’s a rumor that the starting pitcher (for that day) picks out the uniform before a game. Does the manager pick what days to wear alternate uniforms or are they picked based on opponent?
..Like how MLB hats have the MLB logo on the back of the hat.
Do MiLB hats have the same, but with the minor league baseball emblem?
I’m speaking in terms of the new era 5950, or on-field performance cap.
The "pointed ‘C’" is used by both the Chicago Bears of the NFL and the Cincinnati Reds of the MLB. Is there a reason that they would choose to make the "C" pointed on the back end? Is there a significance to two different cities using the logo?
Update: This type of C is called a "Wishbone C."" Also, The Minnesota Twins of MLB use it as well. Still, what is the origin of the "Wishbone C" and why do multiple franchises use it?
My thinking is that the team already has a contract with that player, so in the MLB Daily transactions, why do they list the team as purchasing the contract. Is the team paying themselve’s for the contract or is this a price the player receives for being called up to the show?
There’s a blog that puts together schedules for all MLB teams by looking at all of the different press releases from all 30 teams — and figures out who plays who and when.
For instance, Yankees only released dates for important series (Red Sox, Mets, inter-league) but other teams have released entire 2008 schedule.
Help to finding blog that completes 2008 schedule?
Thanks in advance!!
