IMO the MLBPA does a great job of taking care of the star players but a horrible job of taking care of the young players (and minor leaguers although I don't think they technically represent them).
That is changing.. albeit, slowly.. Minor leaguer players no longer qualify as "slave labor".. but, just barely..
Agree. But that is the only way the low budget teams can compete. They need to get $20 million per year production from guys making about 10-25% of that. I have always been surprised that the bottom 15 players on each roster haven't pushed back more in CBA negotiations or that the owners haven't successfully promised more to the back of the roster guys to cap the earnings on the top guys.
It comes down to what the players want. Those players in power fight for American Dream of saying (just like many Americans play the billion dollar lotto) - go big or go home
Come on, we all do it.
Coach is there another meaning for aka that I'm just not aware of? I keep seeing you use aka and I read it as also known as and chuckle thinking it must have another meaning
Condon was not nearly as good in the COD
But, also remember that he was a dual sport in HS (QB). So, he sat his first year. His Cod year is after his first full college year. Would be interesting if he played the Cod this year but he may be doing the pre-draft workouts/tours instead.
