Just seen the news about Negro Leagues. Much deserved.... Bet they gonna start selling limited edition fitteds like they did for Jackie Robinson Anniversary.
Ima look out for some Brooklyn Royal Giants fitteds.
I already got an avirex Brooklyn Eagles Negro League Jacket I wear once in a blue

it only matters to us
I love the intent behind it but no this is not the right move
NBA don’t even acknowledge ABA stats from before the merger
Negro Leagues had 80 game seasons tops…a lot of MLB players would be HOF if you froze their batting average or ERA at 80 games
I know there’s some white guilt involved but you can’t stat your way out of your ancestors being racist monsters

Saying the stats shouldn’t be conflated isn’t the same thing as saying they don’t matter
Can still recognize them without combining

So why is josh gibson in the hall of fame?

The HOF doesn’t display “MLB player” under his name for a reason that shouldn’t just get painted over

Lol what? He's in the baseball hall of fame....he's never played in the MLB bruh
Rubato

Reread what I said
He is in the HOF but the distinction that he played in a separate league is still made
They don’t put “MLB player” under his name on the HOF plaque
No need to sugarcoat a painful history

Understandable point of view, but I'm just gonna bask in it... there are names that should be put up high that aren't known outside of real fanatic baseball fans

You just made my point again I just said he didn't play in the MLB so of course they wouldn't label him that but he played the same game as the other great ball players......why do you think the negro league was created?

So following that logic, why would the stats be combined?

Why wouldn't it? MLB acknowledges them as baseball players......they know it was fucked up making them create another league because of race
