Maybe have it increase 5% a year. $100M is way too much all at once. I do think the PAs (current) requests on the CBT and min salary are pretty reasonable. But insisting on $100M on the bonus pool is going to kill this deal getting done today. Edited March 1, 2022 by ChiSox59 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But you didn’t hear any players denying the reports this morning like we have been all along. I think you’re likely right though....and this sucks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both sides should be able to make that part happen. Its a joke if not. Its rather immaterial difference in the beginning.

Good to know that Jerry is willing to derail his own team's championship window for the second time in his ownership tenure so they can break the MLBPA. Priorities.

Tnetennba Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 These numbers just aren't that far apart. There is a way here, but I have zero faith in the owners to act in good faith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't know if he has Manfred's ear, or how involved he is this time around. 1994 was also a long time ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
