Monday is the final day for MLB and the players to reach a new CBA to avoid missed regular season games according to Rob Manfred. But how strict is that deadline really. Ken Rosenthal and Tim McMaster discuss that before answering your questions in the mailbag...
-Why is Tony Clark still in charge of Union after failures with last CBA?
-How would an owner convince a fan that their side is fair?
-How much power does Scott Boras have in these negotiations?
-Could players start their own league as leverage?
-Could National League DH lead to return of Rizzo or Scwarber to Cubs?
-Is the automated strike zone a made up problem?
-Manager contracts
-How much animosity is there between big market and small market owners?
-Why didn't they get a new CBA done during 2020 shutdown?
