So back to the actual topic....it will look quite poorly if/when they cancel Jackie Robinson’s 75th Anniversary. That day is next up on the calendar of scheduled games.

Way easier said than done. You’d be opening it all up to even more corruption.

Sure, if they had an agreement to quickly extend his contract, etc.

Baseball also is the one sport where draft picks are going to require a few years in the minors before being ready. Thus, they’re not really going to care who’s currently at the position in the majors.

They’re also sports where having one or two superstars makes a huge difference. Baseball is quite different.

Poor Andrew Vaughn who got called up after barely playing in the minors? Players sign with good teams all the time where they’re blocked in college sports, as they know they will eventually get a shot while being marketable.

Sure, and if they could all spend similar amounts, they’d still go to the more prestigious team with better marketing possibilities.

Sweet, so the Bulls can sign Chet and Jabari Smith this offseason? Not having a draft for sports might be the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.

And now we get to hear about how players will want to be paid for 162 games.

I don’t see what’s going to change in the next few weeks regarding international draft issue. Personally, I have no desire to get invested in a season of 60-100 games again.

I’m convinced neither side wants a fair deal and only wants one they clearly win.

The union is getting blasted for this. I can’t believe something that makes so much sense due to the corruption is causing all these issues.

I’ve seen where owners are pessimistic a deal gets done

Let me guess, he’s going to also say he’s against PED testing.

Yep, this ain’t happening

Thought I read where it can take 2-3 days to ratify

Because it brings so much parity to sports like college football...not

Yeah I never predicted the cancel culture would come for drafts

Hector and Fernando....our dream duo

Maybe it’s me but if this doesn’t work in the next 24 hours, it’s going to be a long time before we see a deal.

Not a shock at all he’s injured. His mechanics are quite poor and seemed to have velocity issues last year. Wasn’t the rumor for the last year the Sox wanted to trade him due to his injury risk?

Isn’t it less about what poor teams can do and more trying to limit what the rich teams can do?

Speaking of Eloy, I watched videos of all his homers in his career. He’s not fat by any means, but he sure put on a lot of weight the last few years. I’m sure the injury impacted his conditioning.

Anyone know what Austin Meadows slash line would have looked without the shift? He was hurt the most by it.

Am I the only one who thinks it’s nuts Druw Jones hasn’t given up pitching? Seems like too big of a risk of injury related to how much money he’s going to receive.
