There is nothing sad about Progressive Field. The field is an absolute Gem and I hope it stays around forever. Its right in downtown. Looks Beautiful. Big, yet intimate. Not a bad seat in the house. The shipping container experiment is going to be rectified.

Even if they had dropped the "Indians" name, this Cleveland franchise from what I read was also known as the Spiders in the early 20th Century as well. Spiders was a much better nickname if a change was going to be made at all. Could have linked it to say "Peter Parker" and Company from the Marvel Comics series.

I know this is a very unpopular opinion, but I think progressive is actually very similar to Camden Yards, in terms of general feel of the stadium.

In1999, during those ballpark construction projects a new Fenway Park was proposed in Boston. The new Boston Red Sox owners with John Henry used previous Jacobs Field as a model. Fenway would keep its monster but moving the big projection screen over it. Massive expansion of the Right Field Bleachers. For right and left field sides added concessions stand and more seating options to the upper box seats. The failed and Dan Duquette was fired as GM. New Red Sox owners renovated Fenway Park. Team got a new manager Terry Francona and they received Manny Ramirez. Both are Cleveland alumni. Theo Epstein used same strategy for Chicago Cubs. Renovated Wrigley and won a world series.

Thus video spent a lot of time/energy talking about the upper deck, but somehow failed to show the outstanding repurposing of the RF and LF lower corners, where they’ve carved out massive social sections where people can watch the game while mingling and moving around the high-top ledges. I’m not a younster, but when I go to games with friends, etc. We’re always drawn to these type of areas. In the 90s, you were often limited to sitting down side-by-side for 3+ hours, Progressive Field is a wonderful place to watch a game while still being social.

Where do you get this "people were leaving the area" stuff? The population of the Cleveland Metro area remained almost entirely flat from 2000-2022 (1, 786, 000 in 2000, and was 1,764,000 in 2020 ,with projected INCREASES for last year and this). I guess it didn't fit your narrative of it being the Vegas Strip in the 1990s and Hiroshima circa 1946 in the 2000s. Reporting on the failed renovations is one thing but this was piece was done with hatchet in hand.

Great American Ballpark is a straight up dump. Comerica Park is only slightly better but has been botched in renovations as well. It feels weird. Progressive Field is just clunky now. It has no feel and atmosphere. I was never as high on it as others were during it’s heyday. PNC Park is still a beautiful facility and the only park I truly enjoy visiting as a Guardians fan living in Ohio. The Reds deserve so much better after playing in that sewer known as Riverfront Stadium for so many years. The Reds are too great of a historical franchise to play in that joint.

Back in 1993 I was attending a bachelor party at a bar on Huron Rd. I and a few other drunk partiers walked thru a hole in the construction fence and into the under construction Jacob's Field. We stopped where the current last row in left field is and looked down at the all dirt playing field. Many seats were not yet installed. Being a greater Clevelander all my life I followed the INDIANS for almost 50 years but paid no attention to them the day after they became politically correct and changed the team name. Sure, I check the standings now and then but would never watch a game. (This is very easy to do while living in Asia). One last thing. How 'bout those REDSKINS!

The '97 team that came close to winning it all was probably the worst of that sellout period but they won when it counted in the playoffs.

The economic #'s are extremely close to pre-pandemic levels. The unemployment rate in April 2020 was 14.7 %. It is currently 3,8. The Indians/Guardians have participated in 9 post-season competitions since 2000. They have had 13 winning seasons since then. Calling 2016 an "outlier" is a bit of a reach and ignores much success with limited payrolls. I agree that a cap + more revenue sharing would more level the playing field but, as a small market team, the Guardians have done extremely well. They have small margins so, when their starting pitching gets decimated like this year, they have no chance. Considering the results, the attendance this year is decent, about the same as Baltimore, which has had a great year. @@ronpeacock9939

The Orlando metroplex, which includes Kissimmee (where the Disney stadium sits), has grown since then. Also, the Orlando Rays (who served as Tampa Bay's "Double-A" team) played there 1999-2003.

The Cleveland Browns should play at Progressive Park while the Guardians get a new Stadium in Brooks Park

Progressive Field is a nice place to watch a game....used to make the trip up from Pittsburgh 3 or 4 times a year. The only disgusting thing is the team's nickname, and the way team ownership and MLB genuflected before the Woke Mafia. Haven't been to a game in Cleveland since the name change, and I really wish them no success so long as they are the "Guardians."

What would y'all think about merging the Cleveland franchise with either the Tigers, Reds or Pirates, and splitting the home games between both places? Consent of MLBPA would be obtained by expanding to replace the lost team and by agreeing to a payroll floor of $150 for the merged franchise.

The Rays already tried to do it and it failed so it would be hard to try that again

@@adanalyst6925 They tried it with Montreal, that didn't make a lick of sense. The obvious solution for the Rays was to merge with the Marlins. It still may happen in another ten, when Sternberg is finally forced to concede that baseball in St. Petersburg will never succeed even with a brand new state of the art stadium.

@@GeraldM_inNC I do still think that the Rays should split time between the Marlins stadium and Tampa bay. That would be a good option for Florida baseball.

@@stevep8445 I never said they merged with the Expos. Where on earth did you get the idea that I said that? Someone else's post used the collapse of the proposal to play half the Rays' games in Montreal to refute the practicality of my proposal to merge teams and split their home schedules. I replied that splitting the home games of a merged Rays-Marlins franchise is a totally different thing from the Rays playing half their games in Montreal. You need to read posts more carefully before you comment on them.

I disagree man, I think the newer renovation idea doesn’t look bad at all. What do you expect them to do? People don’t go to baseball games especially in Cleveland the way they used to.

With everything going woke and the commissioner putting all these asinine rules in the game who has time to enjoy the deck or even Finnish a beer! By the time you Finnish you snacks and one beer the game is over! CLEVELAND CHANGE THE NAME BACK TO THE INDIANS!

Perfectly said. A lot of people say these new rules are great, but you aren't getting bang for your buck anymore. And the one field game (and product, depending on the team) keep getting worse.
