BASEBALL: First Games of 2022 Season Canceled

TeeRoy's 2 Cents:

With the common people dealing with inflation, this battle that has billionaires fighting with millionaires is a bad look for baseball.

They're also divided on the issue over minimum salary, so some of the millionaires are looking out for the lower-paid players.

We could all use the distraction of baseball now. Hopefully, they can work it out.

We won't hear the words "Play Ball!" at a Major League Baseball stadium in March. This comes after Major League Baseball owners and the Players Association failed to come up with a new collective bargaining agreement on Tuesday, so the owners' lockout of players will continue beyond Spring Training.

As a result, Opening Day, March 31st, and the first two series of the 2022 season have been canceled, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred announced Tuesday.

Manfred said, "I had hoped against hope I wouldn't have to have this press conference where I am going to cancel some regular season games. We worked hard to avoid an outcome that's bad for our fans, bad for our players and bad for our clubs. Our failure to reach an agreement was not due to a lack of effort by either party."
