Well, let’s hope deadlines work.
There was little movement, if any, this week on baseball’s labor front.

Very little of the gap between the two sides was bridged as the Feb. 28 deadline to start spring training and begin the regular season on Mar. 31 draws ever closer.
ESPN reports the two sides will likely begin meeting every day next week, and not a moment too soon. But where are the two sides on this issue?
