PA,

if the owners have never opened their books...

I don't know enough, nor do I have a dog in the fight. I would prefer to have baseball around than not have it around. Whether that means the owners have to cave or the players have to cave, doesn't really make a difference to me. I just don't like the ~ but they're billionaires ~ argument that I've seen being tossed around. That was not directed at you either, I've seen a good amount of baseball writers taking that angle and I just think it's a lazy argument. The value of the ownership does not mean that they're required to pay more because they're worth more.

If the players have an issue with the payouts they're more than welcome to say no thanks I'll sit this one out. I don't like what Snell did but at least he's honest and says he doesn't think it's worth his time rather than play the blame game.
