Millennial baseball players grew up believing the spending faucet didn’t have a shut-off valve. Why would they?

Just flash back to Dec. 8-12, 2000, the solar vortex of one of the hottest periods in hot stove annals. In that brief stretch at the winter meetings in Dallas, baseball handed out three of the biggest deals in history, starting with Mike Hampton’s eight-year, $121 million deal with the Rockies, the longest for a pitcher since Wayne Garland’s 10-year deal with the Indians in 1977.

Haney also echoed his previous criticism of the Raiders potentially coming to his city given the contentious dealings between the team and Oakland.

“I’ve been vocally opposed to this. It’s about how we treat our neighbors in the East Bay. It’s my understanding that the folks at the Coliseum and in Oakland want one more season, as planned. The only change is a lawsuit that shouldn’t have led to retaliation from the Raiders,” Haney said. “I don’t know why we’d [San Francisco] jump on that, given the way the Raiders have treated host cities.”

Haney was referring to the anti-trust suit filed by Oakland against the Raiders and the NFL over the team’s decision to leave the city and move to Las Vegas. It has in part fueled the Raiders’ quest to find a new temporary home for 2019 after backing out of a tentative deal to play the season at the Coliseum.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has said he wants to know the Raiders’ location plans by this month so schedule-makers can start planning out the next season.

If they play at Oracle Park next season, the Raiders would have to work around the Giants’ schedule, meaning that the bulk of the Raiders’ first month would likely need to be played on the road. The Giants are at home for Weeks 2 and 4 of the NFL season. The Giants are home Sept. 9, one day after the NFL’S opening day. That’s probably not enough time to convert the field from football to baseball.

It wouldn’t be the first time football is played at what is now called Oracle Park. UC Berkeley’s football team played there in 2011.

Giants shortstop Brandon Crawford had a reaction to the prospect of football returning to his home field. Replying on social media to a tweet from baseball reporter Andrew Baggarly about the bad hops that can occur after an infield has been pounded by a football game, Crawford offered two sadfaced emoji.
