Emergency Pod: Opening Day Cancelled...What's Next?: Jeff Blair and Kevin Barker react to the news that MLB and the Players Association were not able to come to a labour agreement, and that the coming season's first two series have been cancelled as a result. They discuss the press conferences by Rob Manfred and Tony Clark, Manfred's path forward as commissioner, and players wanting to be treated as people instead of assets. Afterwards, they break down the major remaining issues, including the Competitive Balance Tax (CBT) and how both the players and owners view it very differently.
