So apparently there is uproar about the stalled and late movement in the free agent market. Some agents are saying players are discussing some kind of hold out related to spring training. In solidarity of course. One agent suggested that teams are making a coordinated effort to hold back free agent signings.
At first when I heard this I thought it was the MLBPA protesting the potential of the pitching clock. But I guess it is bigger.
I hate to see this. MLB is in a really good place right now. I hope it doesn't happen. And players I think would have to expect there would eventually be a slow down in the size of contracts. It can't keep going exponentially up forever.
