Just moments ago, Major League Baseball commissioner Rob Manfred held a press conference to announce that MLB and the MLBPA did not come to an agreement on collective bargaining agreement and that Opening Day will not take place on March 31 as previously scheduled.
Following the announcement, baseball fans flooded social media to bash Manfred.
Here are some of the best tweets.

Owners are idiots. Fans are craving baseball with pandemic going on and their greed takes center stage. What a joke!

Screw Manfred and all his dirtbag billionaire owners. Screw them for locking the players out, for waiting six weeks before showing up to the table, and for sacrificing nearly nothing toward good faith negotiations, all at the expense of us, the fans. #FireManfred

I’m taking this year off from attending any MLB games. Screw them.

That’s it. As a loyal baseball fan since 1892 in the days of Buttercup Dickerson and Cannonball Titcomb, I will never watch another game again. This sport has been tainted forever. Good riddance.

There is no deal today. There was never going to be a deal today as there’s a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that’ll be a home run. And so that will make it a 4-0 ballgame

The concerns of our fans are at the very top of our consideration list as there’s a drive into deep left field by Castellanos and that’ll be a home run. And so that will make it a 4-0 ballgame
