Fire Rob Manfred
Fire Rob Manfred
Why this petition matters
Since Rob Manfred has taken office as Commissioner of Major League Baseball in 2015, the traditional game of baseball that we love and cherish so much has unfortunately started to take a less appealing form. In the 5 years Mr. Manfred has served as commissioner we have seen SEVERAL unappealing rule changes, scandals and proposed league changes that have only seemed to be in the interest of himself and not the fans or players. Some of those topics are as follows..
- Getting rid of the Minor Leagues
- Changing the playoffs to a less appealing format that will forever ruin postseason records and make the regular season less meaningful
- Adding a play clock
- Terrible pace of play rules
- Local team blackouts that take away the ability for fans to gain local interest
- Threatening to move the Oakland A’s to Las Vegas
- Astros cheating scandal and poor punishment execution
- “Juicing” baseballs
- Taking away contact plays
- Threatening to shorten the regular season
- Wants to make the DH universal
- Wants to move the mound back to increase offense and scoring
-Electronic umpires
And many many more changes that the vast majority of MLB fans, supporters and even players are not in favor of. Help us save baseball and stop the changes! Sign the petition to save baseball and fire Manfred today!!
