Reports: MLB has informed Toronto Blue Jays they will call PNC Park home this season
https://triblive.com/sports/reports-mlb ... is-season/MLB has informed the Toronto Blue Jays that they will share PNC Park with the Pittsburgh Pirates as their home field this season, according to reports out of Canada.
Sportsnet’s Hazel Mae first reported the news late Tuesday night, and the Toronto Sun confirmed that the majority of the Blue Jays’ 30-game home schedule will be played in Pittsburgh.
The Canadian government blocked the Blue Jays from playing home games at Rogers Centre in Toronto to prevent visiting teams from crossing the border during the coronavirus pandemic.
The Pirates and Blue Jays have scheduling conflicts on seven home dates this summer, including the Blue Jays’ July 29 home opener against the Washington Nationals, but the Sun reported they can be resolved by playing those games in Washington, D.C. The Blue Jays’ first game at PNC Park would be Aug. 11 against the Miami Marlins, according to the Sun.

Guessing the Pirates get compensation for this, or something?

well, if there are two choices and the two choices are a. compensation or b. maybe the pirates are just magnanimous, i think a. is the safe choice.Guessing the Pirates get compensation for this, or something?

This is good for the downtown hotels and restaurants. Also good for the charter bus companies that shuttle teams from the airport to the hotels and then back to the airport. Nice.

Combined Pirates/Jays teamwould still have no pitching - but watching the Jays lineup with Bell, Reynolds and Polanco when he plays would be must see TV
C: Stallings, Jansen McGuire
1B: Bell, Shaw
2B: Frazier, Biggio
SS: Bichette, Newman
3B: Shaw, Moran
OF: Gurriel, Reynolds, Polanco, Grichuck
DH: Guerrero
SP: Ryu, Musgrove, Roark, Yamaguchi (?), Keller
BP: Giles, ??????
Basically, would be an interesting lineup, and potentially amazing if those second generation Blue Jays' prospects turn into stars this year. Starting pitching would be ok, but the BP is a complete **** show.

My favorite part of this is ignorant Pittsburgh people making the "we finally have a good team in Pittsburgh" joke.

Quite the elaborate scheme to get Reese McGuire back in Pittsburgh.

replay of last night's Marlins v Braves game on MLB network right now.
I turned it off in the top of the 8th when it was 8-1 Marlins. now I'll be able to watch the Braves put up 8 in the bottom of the 8th and 1 in the 9th to walk off with the win.
