You’re reducing minor league levels so owners can save money. I’ve never seen a league essentially de-emphasize the sport. This means major league clubs will want to have stake in colleges. This alone should make you hope this thing doesn’t pass. You think CFB is pro sports? Imagine having LSU’s roster micromanaged by an MLB team.
Why would major league teams want to save money by subsidizing fewer minor league teams only turn around a subsidize colleges whose players they don’t hold the rights to negotiate contracts with?
He needs that tax revenue to refill the Strategic Oil Reserve and the MIC wants their $40 billion to re-stock all those weapons we used destroying that fishing fleet that we refer to as the Iranian Navy.
I’ve worked thousands of Hurricane claims. I also worked the 2011 Alabama Tornado Outbreak. It may not be the scariest natural disaster footage, but the damage I witnessed in Hackleburg, AL with my own eyes was the most impactful thing I’ve ever seen in person.

This is all so the owners don’t have to spend money on minor league baseball. Cheap fricks
I think this would be a win-win-win for franchises, college baseball and the players. Players can collect NIL, leave if they are ready after getting 2 years of college experience and education and up to 5 years to develop that they would never get in pro ball. College baseball gets every top prospect for at least 2 years and clubs don’t waste millions on some hot shot whose talent didn’t translate to the next level.

They aren’t screwed. The super low bonus guys are taking the offer willingly because they know they’re infinitely replaceable and taking the offer guarantees them a spot in affiliated ball.
Really? So why does MLB slot the first 10 rounds AND why do teams regularly pay ABOVE slot value? Does that mean being drafted in the first 10 rounds make that player irreplaceable?
quote:
Similar to when the NFLPA slashed rookie contracts and set slot caps. No one is actually at the table to fight for incoming guys. Their money just gets reallocated.
Now the MLB draft is a completely different beast so I'm very intrigued to see how this plays out.
MLB should do the right thing and insure that college seniors are paid a fair slot bonus instead of letting them get screwed by franchises because the kid has no leverage since professional baseball is a legally sanctioned monopoly.
You can bet that if the rule is adopted, there will be a lot of back channel shenanigans trying to get agreements before teams are willing to use one of those 12 suddenly precious draft picks. I wonder if they will do away with compensatory picks.

Don’t think the mlbpa is going to let that pass imo.
The MLBPA doesn’t give rat’s arse about minor league players. I’m sure they couldn’t care less about the rights of the amateur players that would be affected by that proposed rule.

Side note: I had a long conversation with Lloyd Peever while standing in the bathroom line in Tiger Stadium about 7-8 years ago. Really nice guy. His one season at LSU is up there with the greatest single season performances by a pitcher in LSU history.

frick him. He decided to commit an extremely high profile murder and basically wrote a manifesto about it. Is the media NOT supposed to report the facts? If that makes it unfair, so be it.

You came to the conclusion that, because the UK and France didn’t support the US-Israeli attack on Iran, that they won’t respond to unwarranted Russian aggression in the English Channel?

I don’t disagree with any of that but as of this moment, your second assertion is a moot point.

They’ve basically been doing that since 1979 when they invaded the US Embassy in Tehran and tortured American citizens for 15 months before moving on to murder 241US Marines in their barracks in Beirut.
She's right. If there were justice, they would have taken the dude out back after the guilty verdit, buried a knife in his heart and make the kid's family pay court costs. That would be a better lesson.
