Just really shocking to me how every time the public sides with ownership, who is now using a pandemic as leverage to screw over players into accepting a salary cap which is pretty much the only thing they haven't taken away from them already.
I think this is the only way we ever see a salary cap implemented in baseball, but the odds are slim to none that it will happen because the players don't want it. I feel we are in for another battle similar to 1994 strike...but this may be a lot costlier to both sides and the game may have a hard time recovering.
