I wasn't including the doubleheader guys because they're not a service time and roster manipulation, they're a legitimate rule that's on the books for a reason. But yeah, just paying them might be a reasonable option. I think it should be no less than ten days because part of the goal is to deter roster rotation. If a team is paying three people for one roster spot at the same time, it's likely they'll be slightly deterred from being so quick with the promotion/demotion trigger.

Yes to all of this, I was speaking more about this particular rule's implementation than it being my first choice. To me, the easy way to "solve" this problem is to increase the number of days a player must be on the MLB roster when he is recalled. I'd aim for a 15-20 day minimum unless injury is involved. What baseball needs to fix is calling up a starter or reliever for one day, then demoting him again. If someone is called up, they deserve a significant paycheck and the relative stability of being in one place for at least a couple of weeks.

Who do the Twins sign first post lockout?
Brock Beauchamp replied to Vanimal46's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
-
I saw that report yesterday and had the exact same response.
-
Yep, which is why I believe the number should be lower, like three.
-
Teams are only allowed to shuttle a player from the minors to the majors five times a season now. I still think that's too high but the owners were mildly resistant to the change and negotiated it down to five (I think players started at three).
-
God, I hope so.

Is the emerging CBA the right one?
Brock Beauchamp replied to Game7-91's topic in Minnesota Twins Talk
So much news today it's hard to keep track. Manfred announced reporters will return to clubhouses, which is a pretty big deal for journalists. https://www.mlbtraderumors.com/2022/03/manfred-reporters-will-have-clubhouse-access-in-2022.html -

I’m not a fan of more inter-league but it’s also not a big deal.

No more game 163s? Okay, I don't like that at all.

Overall, baseball ended up in a pretty good place, IMO. While I would have preferred vastly increased revenue sharing with a salary floor/ceiling, that was shooting for the moon. Overall, I'm pretty happy with the situation (other than the process of getting here), particularly the 2023 rules changes, which I whole-heartedly support.

Yep, but also this:
-
-
Annnnnndddddd MLB added that the MLBPA needs to drop its 2020 lawsuit to their latest offer.
-
Now MLB adding that MLBPA needs to drop their 2018 lawsuit. For crying out loud, MLB, stop adding new demands to the CBA at the eleventh hour.
-
At this point, I'm convinced Arte Moreno is literally torpedoing these proceedings simply to keep Ohtani for one more year via service time. I lived in LA when Moreno bought the team and everyone was so excited, now he's considered one of the worst owners in the sport.
-
Oh man, I forgot Liriano peaked that high. I knew the other four but forgot about him.
-
You're absolutely right that the owners need to stop pulling this eleventh hour crap but the players should also just agree to an international draft once they see some reasonable demands met. It's the right thing to do for the sport.

Apple TV+ to add Friday Night Baseball and more

But then you don’t get to watch the same MLB highlight reel between innings 852 times a year.
