Majority owner Fred Wilpon is the new chairman of MLB’s finance committee. Same guy who gave most of his money to Bernie Madoff.

Sounds like quite a move by MLB

How about the new commissioner. One day on the job and he's talking about moving the draft and banning defensive shifts. How the hell do you ban the shift? God don't tell me this guy is a bigger idiot than Pud.

Maybe Wilpon could hire David Hernandez to run the MLB Channel.

Saw his ESPN interview. Couldn't believe what he said about banning shifts. And he still wants the All Star Game to determine home field advantage for the World Series. :roll:

Also, Bud will go down as a very good commissioner overall. The players and owners loved him.
