I'm trying to imagine just how they'd put one on Fenway. Short of building a retractable roof around the stadium I'm not seeing it. And the supports would take up everything for some distance, at least across Lansdown and all the surrounding streets. I don't see us ever going for that.

Just hire ballplayers that aren't too wussy to play on cool overcast days. That's usually much cheaper.

My 3?
1) All games on real grass outdoors.
2) Less whining about pitchers throwing inside especially if the batter has been showboating. And even if the pitch hits them.
3) Some incentive for players to stay with a team. AND for teams to keep players. I totally understand when a guy leaves because the current team will only pay 2 million a year but someone else will pay 10. But I also don't like it when good players are simply cut and have to sign a minor league deal because they're up for arbitration.
