Should that happen, the current WWE Thunderdome location in
St.
Petersburg, Florida, Tropicana Field, could be available to the company for some additional time. The original belief was that WWE would have to exit this April as The Tampa Bay Rays are scheduled to play their home opener against the New York Yankees on Friday 4/9, the same weekend at Wrestlemania 37.
The proposal from MLB would see their 2021 season instead start at the end of April, which would give WWE at least several more weeks in theory.
Thanks to our old friend Chuck Carroll for sending that along!

More than 10 years ago, my first piece of published baseball writing appeared on the Community Blog at FanGraphs. It was on Adam Wainwright’s curveball. About five years later, I joined FanGraphs as a part-time contributor. I read the offer email in line at Costco of all places. A few years after that, I joined the staff full-time. For nearly six years, I’ve written almost every day, doing work I love focused on a sport I care deeply about. It is a privilege to work at FanGraphs, and while I’m not tired of the work, I’m moving on. I’m leaving the site to join the Major League Baseball Players Association as their Senior Analyst for Economics and Collective Bargaining.
Henry Louis Aaron Fund established to honor Hank Aaron s legacy

ATLANTA - Hank Aaron was laid to rest on Wednesday, but his legacy will continue thanks to the formation of The Henry Louis Aaron Fund, which will live inside the Atlanta Braves Foundation.
On Wednesday, it was announced the fund was seeded with $1 million with an additional half-million dollars being contributed by the Major League Baseball and the Major League Baseball Players Association. We want to continue Hank’s amazing work in growing diversity within baseball now and in the years to come, said Terry McGuirk, Atlanta Braves Chairman. I believe this seed money is just the beginning for this growing fund and I’m certain other companies and organizations who have worked with Hank over the years will join us and add to this call to action to develop talent and increase the diversity on the field and in the front offices across the league.
