I don't think anyone accepted anything. They made another counteroffer that includes the provision of figuring out the international draft by the end of the year or betting back the qualifying offer. That implies there was no acceptance of the international draft by the players, just a delay tactic.

Except the tweets linked on this thread are stating that the players counter offer was to buy time on the international draft and extend the deadline, which was originally the owners idea, but the owners rejected it because it was past a deadline.

Scherzer's tweet implies no counter offer was made regarding the international draft.

My two worst fears are becoming a reality.

1) I'll have nothing to watch but the NBA starting the night after the NCAA Title game.

2) Cancelled games means a delay to the start of the 2022 Joey Gallo thread.

The USFL might find some fans with this lockout.

(1) Terrible throw by 1B
(2) Why TF is 3B out of position this badly?
(3) As soon as the catcher left his post, P should have been covering home.

What a piss poor job defensively.

In the "it will never happen" category, the media should completely stop reporting on the negotiations. Nobody shows up to talk to either side. It would be glorious.

Great move. He can pitch to the Minor Leaguers to get their confidence up.

I'm not gonna post it, but Heyman is pumping optimism again. Guess Manfred told him to turn it up. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me (n+1) times, shame on me.

I think what he said was accurate, just someone got into his account and is going wild at the worst time. Bob Nightengale had the same stuff

I just don't understand why they can't let the players use the facilities and have access to the team trainers during this time. The owners have to know how stupid that is. Especially for the players they are investing millions in that are recovering from injuries (McCullers, Sydergaard, DeGrom, Trout, Acuna, etc)

That's outrageous… no way would they sign him to that many years. Probably more like 12 years $858MM

I got to admit, I'm pretty excited about the possibility of the Astros having $45MM or so of "cap space" instead of $23MM.

Basically 55 minutes to have a deal done. I think it's close to getting done. Just a hunch.

Don't be. Several teams (like maybe NY) were out of the Correa market with the old tax. Now, they're in it. I still don't see us giving Correa the mega-deal he wants, regardless of tax. I think we're pretty much done unless we find value or enter the trade market.

Why throw in something extra like dropping the lawsuit? Seems like every time the league feels like it's close, it's "hey, here's another random thing we never brought up that we want"

Looks like the executive board of the MLBPA is voting against it. Bad look for the players if true.
