BCB Mailbag 6: Collective Bargaining Agreement and Hot Stove Season

Yeah I know, it’s Saturday. But there was a bunch of other stuff that needed to be covered yesterday so cut me some slack, would ya?! Let’s dive into your questions:

stigmo asks:

Does the new CBA help or harm small-market teams like the Brewers? Or does it maintain the status quo?

The CBA does actually kind of help the small markets. Not losing a first round pick to sign a QO free agent will be nice when the team is in compete mode, and the hard spending caps on the international market will help the team be able to be competitive for those free agents.
