After just about 100 days, Major League Baseball's lockout is finally going, going...gone. And with it, a whole new world order within the sport has arrived.
After months of negotiations that were rarely anything other than tense, MLB and the MLB Players Association finally bridged their differences and reached a new collective bargaining agreement on Thursday.
As a result, all of the things that baseball had been putting off are now back on.
That includes the remainder of the 2021-22 offseason, most notably the free-agent sweepstakes of superstars like Carlos Correa, Freddie Freeman, Kris Bryant and Clayton Kershaw.
