MLB Players May Sit Out
MLB commish Rob Manfred says there will be a Major League Baseball season. However, some players have indicated they may sit it out if they aren’t happy with the agreement.
Players are upset over proposed pay cuts amid a shortened season and risk waiver requirements. Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports several players on one team have indicated they’ll stay home, even if it means forfeiting their salary, if Manfred imposes a shortened season. Owners say they’ll lose money if they have to pay full salaries while being unable to sell tickets.
What do you think? Personally, I think these are spoiled babies. Lots of people have lost their jobs and taken pay cuts. Shame on them!
