@ne10uz @JeffPassan I’m on the owners side in this one, since the owners proposal only hurts one group, agents. However I’d do agree if the cap and floor are implemented and are to be percentages of revenue owners need to be forthcoming and need to open up the books.

A pall hung over the festivities of the All-Star Game this week. A lockout is coming -- and at the heart of it is a profound core-economics disagreement. Free at ESPN: The latest on labor, where it stands, where it's going and what you need to know: espn.com/mlb/story/_/id…

@newmanusps71 @JeffPassan 1 alternative out of 4 pro leagues, and I may be wrong, but aren't the vast majority of those 5.2 million shares, non voting shares? oh by the way, as a Mets fan myself, I agree fire stearns !

@bc1178 @JeffPassan Here’s one proven alternative.
But I’m not even advocating for replacing the billionaire owners. I’m advocating against additional rules that let the billionaire owners pretend to be unable to afford to pay players.

@_BigSteve89 @JeffPassan if not for the billionaires to own the teams, exactly who would pay the contacts of the players????

@JeffPassan Damn the billionaires to hell for ruining baseball

@cubsreek108 @JeffPassan if not for the billionaire owners, exactly who would run the teams and pay the salaries of the players........
English

@ne10uz @JeffPassan honest question.... what is the minimum salary in baseball...... i think the players are doing fine. in order to have teams you have to have billionaire owners.
English

@JeffPassan The players are completely right to dig their heels in here. Ownership groups are making record profits and refusing to invest back into the actual talent.

@newmanusps71 @JeffPassan and if it wasn't for the billionaire owners, who exactly would own the teams and pay the exorbinant salaries?
English

@JeffPassan Economics disagreement = billionaire owners being cheapskates who care far more about their teams as investments than as competitive baseball teams

With a little help from @NoahKahan, I just announced new legislation to cut resale ticket prices and fees.
We’re closing the great divide between the artists you love and tickets you can actually afford.

@mmpadellan so would u say same thing if they declined a Dem president?

Elly should be in the All-Star game tonight.
I don’t care who won the fan vote , who the players voted for, or the rule of every team having a representative. Tonight is a showcase of the best and brightest stars in the game. It’s about putting those stars on display and celebrating them.
Elly is a star. Elly is exciting. Whether it’s a homer, a breathtaking triple, a deep into the hole fielding play, or a chase of a foul ball down the line, he’s must see TV.
He should be there tonight.
He’s hitting .274-.347-492-839 with 15 HR, 44 RBI, 14 SB. His OPS+ of 127 puts him at a performance level 27% above the league average.
He should be there tonight.
The country should see Elly tonight.
MLB missed an opportunity tonight.

@BillyRsports @ShannonTheDude @BillyRsports , great job with the counties. when you get to Casey, my road name was PoodleDoo Rd. In 1800's they were naming the roads, and went to my great great grandmother and asked what rd name should be. she was having a bad day and said I don't care if you named it

@JBellSATX @KySportsRadio once every 4 years....... now that the patriotism of the USA still being in it, is over, lets see what the stadiums look like. all I am saying is that if it were possible for all Americans to be surveyed, the overwhelming majority would not care if they ever laid eyes on soccer

@bc1178 @KySportsRadio Packed stadiums for all the World Cup matches here and strong TV ratings for more than just when the US has played don’t back that up
