CTbballDad posted:100% guaranteed contracts...so they need to wait a few years. And if you're a top draft pick, you're paid millions to wait and play. Not to mention guys getting paid $20M during their arbitration years. All of which is funded by us, the consumer. They're doing just fine.
Any changes that should be considered are for the mid/low minor leaguer scraping by on $25K/year and delaying his ultimate professional/working career while chasing a dream. It's those guys who will have long term issues, many of which they'll never over come.
Well, yeah. If you are from the U.S.
One guy got $20M in arbitration. Only a couple top draft picks each year get millions. Agree with the minor leaguers, except $25k is what low/mid minor leaguers make in 2 or 3 years.
It favors ownership. And even more so as time passes by. Lack of competence and foresight by the union. Foolish by management to allow the union to be so stupid. The correction will be driven by a strike.
