That I saw, that is at least progress they were together more today than they had been in forever

No one is signing unless they were able to sneak it in before the lock out

Kris Bryant can do what he wants, because he is Kris Bryant the greatest Cub since the 2000's. - He has a new pizza out called the RBI = Ranch, Barbecue, Italian sausage. Man that sounds great. Ranch Dressing is on that stuff.

It looks like Ian Happ is now part of the Players negotiations

Looks like the sides are still meeting

According to Jesse Rogers the two sides are still meeting today

It looks bad. Baseball went from being popular again after the Cubs beat the Indians to this mess. I blame the commish, he has no clue.

 

Manfred is disliked by many, even more than Goodell is believe it or not. He is ruining baseball.

Manfred doesn't even seem to like baseball, he does everything to ruin it. It is time he is replaced. Lets bring Theo!

 

They are unlikely to start the season on time, and it appears likely games will now be lost, owners suck. 

 

Also anyone else see the Braves financials get released yesterday?

People always dislike commissioners. People hated Bud Selig when he was commish, especially in the beginning. He was inducted into the Baseball Hall of Fame a few years ago. He brought a lot of changes that purists hated -- interleague play, wildcard teams in the playoffs, video replay, and more.  He also outed players for using steroids. 

 

I would not be surprised if Manfred is eventually inducted there too. He is an MLB lifer.

No, I don't think I saw it. What did they show?

I am very against Manfred, and comments he have made ("World Series trophy is hunk of metal), make it even more that he doesn't put MLB as a game

 

And they showed very very nice revenue increase, even after the EBITDA stuff and that the idea that MLB teams are unprofitable is a complete crap comment that the Owners (and Manfred) try to push to convince public perception to favor them as losing money even though they are not

Yes, I agree.

Well there could be a deal, before all awake. They are staying working late to try to get a deal done tonight. Could have all 162

And now it has reversed back to being unlikely to get a deal. Owner side pushed narrative, trying to make people blame the players

[PuntersArePeopleToo]

Well opening day is cancelled. 

 

God do I hate Manfred

[RollerColt]

Not expecting baseball anytime soon, unfortunately. And Penny pinching Bobby is playing a major role.
