I don't see any baseball expansion right now. If it were up to me, I would contract two teams. But I certainly don't think expansion on the horizon.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All ballplayers want to wind up their careers with the Cubs, Giants or Yankees. They just can't help it.
We want to add an American League pennant... and to bring the World Series to Arlington.
But baseball bounced back in the next decade to reclaim its place as the national pastime: new heroes, spirited competition, and booming prosperity gave birth to dreams of expansion, both within the major leagues and around the world.
Finally, for all of us but a lucky few, the dream of playing big-time baseball is relinquished so we can get on with grown-up things.
Baseball is a hard game. There's going to be ups and downs.
My dreams do not end with playing Major League Baseball.
I predict that many teams will go out of business and the size of the leagues will be greatly reduced.
No matter how much technology changes scouting, no matter how much free agency and big TV contracts change the business of baseball, I hope and pray that the heart of the game will never change.
If I had any interest in coming back to baseball, it would be as a general manager and not as a manager.
Baseball's future? Bigger and bigger, better and better! No question about it, it's the greatest game there is!
