I was hoping they would call off the season because it would be one less year of the insane contract the Cubs gave Jason Heyward that is an albatross around the team’s neck.

200 FREE Agents - three weeks to go get 'em!

I don't think my Braves will be able to work the system this time around.

I thought their opening offer to Freddie should have been higher.

$27 Mil/ Yr is nothing these days.

Best thing about the new CBA, IMO - no more zombie runner in extra innings!

The MLBPA Executive Council voted 8-0 to refuse the deal, but were overruled by the players. The Union is so out of touch with the rest of the players. They thought the deal was fair and they wanted to play baseball.

It was in the best interest of the Union to continue to wield their power by continuing with the strike. It was in the Players' best interests to play.

It's never a good idea to be under the control of someone who does not have the same vested self-interests as you.

I'm in the minority on this one . . . I don't mind it. Shouldn't start in the 10th but maybe 12th. Games are plenty long enough. At the point in my life where I don't appreciate 15 or more innings, and likely will be long asleep!

I can get behind that! Give us a couple more innings of normal baseball first at least..
