The Reason Why The Owners Aren’t Going to Lift the Lockout Without A New CBA

There is plenty to digest with the ongoing CBA negotiations, or lack thereof, between MLB and the player’s union. Much of it makes my eyes roll and shake my head in disappointment, but it is what it is. The owners have their objectives clear, while the players are likely hampered by what transpired under previous agreements. One side, by all appearances, is making a good faith approach to negotiations while the other, to be frank, isn’t. Again, I shake my head in disappointment.

With the owners issuing an ultimatum for this upcoming Monday with regular-season games on the line, it leaves the players in a far more precarious situation.
