This was originally going to be a preachy post about how MLB owners are the ones who should be playing for the love of the game, since they’re the ones playing the sport we actually love most. (I’m going out on a limb assuming few of us actually play baseball but we all like to play baseball owner, arguing about what the rules should be, how the postseason should be structured, and constructing our ideal teams for hours on end.)
But then I realized most of our reader probably already leans pretty heavily in favor of the labor side of these negotiations, so I scrapped it.
