Augie Posted March 14, 2020 Posted March 14, 2020 I think with the floor raising about $100k for the lower end (and I think close to majority?) of players, this goes thru, and the owners knew it. If you only get a few years in the league, a $100k raise each year means A LOT! That’s how I heard it, anyway..... 3
wppete Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 A Yes vote is good for the fans. I hope free agency is on Wednesday and legal tampering Monday at noon. We need something to get excited about!!!! Cmon Beane! 2 1
CSBill Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 (edited) I know there is no direct correlation, but in light of all that is going on in our country right now, a “no” vote by the players would be terrible PR for them. But I do not see that happening, virus or not, I believe it will pass easily. I hope they give us the actual numbers. Edited March 15, 2020 by CSBill
Green Lightning Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 Is it to simplified a take to say that the big money boys don't like it and the rank and file are going to benefit? 1

Sure seems like it. You give a guy two options, he's gonna vote for the one that pays him more money. A guy looking at a 5 year career at the bottom end of the scale isn't whining about a 17th game if he's going to get a substantial raise for it. 3

Based on who has been openly opposed to the proposed contract, I'd say you have drawn the correct conclusion. The big money guys don't benefit as much on a percentage basis as the low end roster guys. For example, a playoff game check for a big money guy is almost irrelevant. Yet for a guy making the league minimum, it's a good bump in annual income. Thus a couple of extra playoff teams get more players some meaningful additional income.
qwksilver Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 Anyone wonder what kind of assistance the Agent gave all his clients in picking the correct answer?
Malazan Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 huh, you mean the top 10% of players *didn't* have the interests of other players at heart?! Are you telling me Richard, the saint, Sherman wasn't interested in what was best for players as a whole over what was good for himself? No way.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 Good lets get this thing done, dont need anymore sport interuptions due to stupidity.
machine gun kelly Posted March 15, 2020 Posted March 15, 2020 The owners were smart. Increase pay for the 60% of the players who make the minimum, basically take away marijuana suspensions, and increase retirement and health benefits. The only people I hear complaining are the superstars who made $100 mil., etc. 2
