Breaking: MLB owners vote unanimously to institute a lockout. It is expected to begin tomorrow but unclear what time.
— Jon Heyman (@JonHeyman) December 2, 2021Well, no surprises here, after months (years?) of drums beating about the demise of the 2022 season over CBA negotiations, we’re here.
We’re not gonna roll out some FAQ about the dos and don’ts of players being locked out. Players on the 40-man will no be allowed to rehab with team personnel or work out in team facilities (duh, they’re being locked out, it’s not theoretical!). Players don’t sign, owners don’t offer, Sox Fests get cancelled, dogs and cats living together.
