What the fuck is MILB/MLB doing?!’

Do they want to kill the sport?

You no longer can find videos of prospects in Minor League Baseball games on BaseballAmerica.com or on Baseball America’s YouTube channel. That is because Minor League Baseball demanded Baseball America remove them all.

So Baseball America has taken down all videos from official MiLB games both on our site and on YouTube. We still have batting practice videos from before MiLB games, as well as action from the Arizona Fall League and spring training, but due to MiLB’s demands, we have stopped posting videos of action from MiLB games.

The choice is not one we would have preferred to make, but it is one we wanted to explain so readers and viewers can understand why we were no longer posting videos from MiLB games.

Good job MLB. Baseball America is the only reason anybody ever began to care about the Minors.

You could write a book on how MLB is actively killing its own sport.

They still do DCMA takedown notices when people share highlights of mlb games/plays on twitter.

Where do most of the ”younger generations” spend most of their time? Places like twitter and Snapchat etc.

You want to grow the sports beyond the middle aged folks who make up a good majority of the sport currently? you don’t do what MLB is doing. You do what the NBA is doing.
