Study show that MLB is a least political major sport.

Go MLB. let’s play ball

And maybe figure your CBA (bleep) out before a lockout is necessitated

The CBA will be negotiated and there will be no lockout.

The CBA will be negotiated and there will be no lockout.

Fortunately, no serious MLB writer, reporter, owner, etc... agrees with you....anywhere. Not one.

Lockout coming Dec 1 and there are easily 8 owners that will stick together until we have a cap in place.

Allow me to clarify.
The 2027 season will start on time.

I don't see how with how absolutely against a cap the players and agents are.

They will very likely miss an entire season.

The players and owners are 100% aligned: both are greedy and put their own desire for wealth above the good of the game or the interests of the fans.
That is what most fail to understand.
They are not on opposite sides at all.
The owners and union are on one side; the good of the game and the fans are on the other.
Owners and union will not risk damaging their cash cow.
The 2027 season will be played.
You have the strongest guarantee humanly possible: mine.

Naaa this exact scenario played out in the NFL and the NHL and to a lesser degree the NBA.

The top 1% paid athletes in each league have no desire for a salary cap because they see their yearly earnings being cut. In a cap world Kyle Tucker isn't getting paid 60 million a year for his slightly above average production, that contract would be an absolute anchor.

The top 1% don't care about the rookies, or the league minimum, they only care about their max amount. Sure they'll play the "what about the rookies" card but it won't mean anything and Boras sure as hell is going to fight like crazy to not have a salary cap.

On top of that you will still have 6-8 owners who don't want one either, they like being able to outspend 80% of the league and stacking all stars that they never had to spend a dime developing.

this will take time and won't be easy. They may not miss an entire season, but they sure as hell won't be starting the season on time.

I don't see how, they still have their DEI nights.

The NHL got completely rid of their Pride night and invoke no politics at any level.

Posturing.
It will be resolved and the 2027 season will begin on time.
Shared and collaborative greed has been one of the most powerful motivators throughout human history and this will be no different

It’s linked…or at least perceived to be, to one side of the political spectrum..
