I’d bet anything it’s COVID. And uncertainty about future industry revenues.
I’ll make a prediction: COVID is almost over. The Vax is returning sterling results across multiple countries. (I’m biased as I got hit three weeks ago). By summer Americans will be 50% hit and it’ll dissipate and MLB revenues will go back to trend level.
And when they do, Tatis will regret what he did. [Reply]

Makes me think of when the Royals signed Brett, Wilson & Quisenberry to lifetime deals. [Reply]
Stark: The 2021 spring training storylines survey has Padres, Blue Jays front and center by

Our voters did.
So only four teams besides the Jays got more than two votes in the Most Improved Team balloting: White Sox 28, Angels 14, Royals 12, Yankees 6. And one voter refused to list any other team except the Blue Jays. His ballot looked like this: “Blue Jays … That’s it!”

The leader board after those two: Snell to the Padres 8, Darvish to the Padres 7, Andrew Benintendi to the Royals 2. The fun little group that got one vote apiece included Raisel Iglesias to the Angels, an actual Yankees-Red Sox deal (sending Adam Ottavino to Boston) and separate votes for both the Yankees’ and Pirates’ end of the Jameson Taillon trade.
