In case you somehow missed the news, Major League Baseball is currently in a lockout after the CBA expired. And everything we’ve heard about negotiations between the owners and the MLB Players Association suggests that conversations are going about as smoothly as your political discussions with that one uncle at the dinner table every holiday season.
The owners and the union might not like each other, but they need to agree on the pertinent financial details sooner or later, and there’s always a chance it’s the former. For all we know, the lockout could be resolved as early as next week.
