After months of negotiations and the threat of a lockout, the MLB, owners and the MLB Players Association have finally settled on a new agreement, the first under commissioner Rob Manfred. A 5 year deal, the CBA will ensure that the longest standing streak of labour peace will reach 30 years.
Points of contention in these negotiations included the notion of draft pick compensation for elite free agents, an international draft and the luxury tax threshold.
Naturally, the nature of this agreement means there are a number of clauses that will effect the way the Dodgers can operate over the next 5 years.
