Well stock up on beer - the players have rejected the owners' 'final' offer and the contingent has left Jupiter. No idea when meetings will resume. Players have said the owners want them to lose money but with games canceled - it's the concessioners, the security staff, ushers, etc who will be the losing the most.
Buster Olney reports it's possible that we won't have baseball before May or June. Owners will start canceling games beginning with OD .He has no idea which side will blink first to get something done. Small market teams (owners) can hold the whole negotiations hostage as far as luxury tax threshold. The big question can lower threshold players stay united when they start losing salary/paydays????? Or will that be the straw to break the solidarity.
