The owners won’t say it but they’re probably fine with no season and the players not getting any money at all

It's a terrible TV sport, and I think a ton of folks can live without it on the TV even if they're just realizing it now.
They really are about to go off the cliff, aren't they? **** them all
I'm sure many of the 41 million unemployed people in the US would be more than happy to play for whatever salary Scherzer and his ilk determine to be so horrible. Get out of here with that tone deaf nonsense.
You are talking apples & oranges. I understand the concept & I agree both sides are at fault. First off, I already had my hours cut by 20%. I am happy to still be employed. Greg Cote of the Miami Herald had a great article today explaining why both sides are at fault. He used the Mike Trout example.....Trout would make $6 million instead of $19 million, or $70,000 per game, Excuse me if that garners no sympathy from an hourly worker such as myself. Now I do feel bad for the minor leaguers this affects.You agree to a job that pays you $100,000 but Covid shuts down your business for half the year. You would still expect $50,000 for the work you provide, right? So how would you feel if your boss asked you to work for $15,000 instead? I'm guessing you wouldn't be too happy.
A fair proposal? Defer payments to the pro-rated amount.
