    Colon can still pitch and the panda can still mash you fat shamers. Maybe they should sue for 75 mill.

    The MLB season,.. one month down and five to go
    The teams play 162 games in 179 days, (not counting the All-Star break)
    That's an average of playing 6.33 days a week for 25 1/2 weeks,.. a grueling schedule
    To be a Wild Card contender, usually, a team needs about 90 wins
    If averaging 15 wins, and 12 losses, for 6 months,.. a teams final record would be 90-62
    15-12 sounds easy,.. just shows how competitive Baseball is

    Playing up to 20 days in a row with a lot of time riding airplanes would be tiring. It's not like they're pampered millionaires or something!

    MLB players minimum wage is $507,500,.. and all the players also receive $100.50 a day meal money.

    Gotta be tough playing about an actual half hour a day for millions. The minor league is where it sucks. At least in comparison.

    Oh, the horrors of flying first class and staying in 5 star hotels. With only a $100 a day to eat it's a wonder they don't all look like Ethiopians.
