MLB, MLBPA agree to negotiate on international draft until July 25. Draft pick compensation will be removed if they agree by then to remove it. Status quo on international entry and draft compensation if no deal by then. The union says it is awaiting a counterproposal from MLB.
$230M CBT threshold in ‘22 (9% rise), $700K minimum (23% rise), $50M bonus pool (new money). Qualifying Offer likely goes away (assuming World Draft is agreed to), universal DH, draft lottery, full service time for RoY, more.

The MLBPA executive board voting unanimously against the CBA which is made up of 63% Scott Boras clients and the rest of the vote going 26-4 in favor of the CBA tells you everything you need to know. [Reply]

Also should raise eyebrows and offer some hope that the current union could be effectively busted up in favor of a PA that actually represents the rank-and-file. We will see. [Reply]

Guess who didn't need Ken Rosenthal to tell him what was completely obvious if you were paying any attention at all and not just swallowing anything fed to you by the sports 'media'.
<----------- This guy right here.
Still insane to me how badly the sportswriters misrepresented what was going on in this process. And how eager some people were to believe it. [Reply]
This wasn't super agents trying to protect their meal tickets. Noooooooo.
It was unreasonable owners that didn't want to play baseball in April.
KCN told me so.
I'm fine taking the L here for the greater good (the Jays project to be one of the best teams in the league this year after all). Although, despite the MLBPA executive board not having the necessary support in the end from the rank-and-file, I'd still maintain that the delay the owners engaged in over the past few months suggested they didn't particularly care if the season started on time.

No. It's a trade off. In your ultimate effort to neuter an agent-driven representative sub-committee and create a schism with the top 1% and the rank and file...you gladly choose to be OK with starting the season late. It's insane to say they didn't care about starting on time unless you're saying they didn't care when considering the bigger picture goals. [Reply]

That's what I'm saying. It was tactical, and to their credit, it worked. [Reply]
