MLB Has a Free Agent Problem...
Рет қаралды 2,857
5 ай бұрынMLB's Free Agency is OUT of control... With Spring Training officially under way, a large majority of baseball's top free agents have yet to be signed to a roster. Former MVP Cody Bellinger and reigning-Cy Young Blake Snell are still looking for a contract just a week away from March.
Here's how Rob Manfred and Major League Baseball can fix the long-standing problem with free agency and "mega-agents" like Scott Boras blocking the path for fans, players, and teams to get the season underway.

A deadline could work great, but what happens to a player if they aren't signed by the deadline, are they just not allowed to play the next season?

Been saying this since 2019, but Scott Boras has been slowly ruining the free agency process for all parties involved. These players that hold out for too long to sign and only get 1/2 or a 1/3 of ST reps leads to them having a noticeably down year by their career standards and opens them up to a higher risk of injury, both of which again hurts all parties involved...except for the Boras Corp.

Kole Calhoun was a free agent until August last year.

The owners keep squeezing the players. They reduce draft bonuses. They cap IFA spending. They manipulate service time. They milk the players for all their worth in their early years, push their bodies to the literal breaking point. Use arbitration as leverage to keep the salaries down. Once they finally reach free agency, they have lost value because they are "too old" or "injury prone." And really only a handful of teams engage the top free agents. Those that do now have "the Cohen tax" to keep them in line. Now you want to artificially limit the signing period because the OFF SEASON is too dull? Aren't there enough artificial limits placed on their earning potential?

Baseball has a significant problem, and the free agency situation is just one of them.
@MichaelReedmd
Deadline is a must. Or every star will go to Yankees or Dodgers eventually. The little more they will gain is a small percentage and meaningless to a well led life. Would they go to a team that will make them happy... only with evil intent.
@dw1188
Definitely need a deadline please!!!! And bellinger to and Montgomery to the angels also lol a guy can dream
@Jackson_88836
They absolutely need to have a deadline. This is just blasphemy. I think Blake snell and Matt Chapman will go to the giants. Love your videos gomer.
@MarkShimer
All I want is like a Robbie Grossman or Kyle Lewis signing for the Braves
@siffumetsu271
Snell is going to be a tough buy for most teams "good pitcher that wont go more than 6 innings a game, walks a lot, only had amazing seasons when he was going to get traded, wants the big bucks and the long term contract i mean his counter to the yankies was crazy enough where i think most teams will skip on him

Dont buy anything from fanatics

That is why this sport is a joke. It is the clown car of all the major league sports.😂😂😂 They wanna be like the n b a. The nba doesn't have salary issues not like this does.
