The New CBA

Let’s try it with some examples…

Small Market Team participates in the lottery in 2022 and 2023. It’s ineligible to participate in the lottery in 2024.

Large Market Team participates in the lottery in 2022. It won’t be allowed to participate in the lottery for 2023.

Ah, yes. Thanks. Dim bulb here.

So here’s all the percentages…

Also, draft junkies with long memories will remember the old draft and follow rules. Well they’re back. God knows why.

Trivia: Roy Oswalt was a draft and follow. The Astros drafted him in 1996 out of high school but didn’t sign him until 1997 after he played one year of juco.

Everyone is welcome here any time! I’m an excellent host. I haven’t been to a baseball game since before the pandemic and I’m ready for this next season to start because it’s been way too long.

Goold is a long-time beat writer and obviously is talking to Cardinals’ GM John Mozeliak…

I had to go back and refresh my memory about this rule. From MLBTR back on May 30 of last year…

MLB Planning To Reinstitute Pitcher Limit On Active Rosters In 2022

Major League Baseball will again limit teams to carrying thirteen pitchers on the active roster when the 2022 season begins, reports Bob Nightengale of USA Today. MLB instituted a 13-pitcher limit in February 2020, but the rule has been waived in each of the past two seasons as part of the MLB-MLBPA agreements on COVID-19 health and safety protocols. Interestingly, the 13-pitcher limit may just be the beginning. The league is open to capping the number of hurlers on an active roster at twelve or perhaps eleven further down the line, per Nightengale.

Love draft and follow being back! Great option for kids and teams. Especially with the reduction in short season minor league teams.

Maybe someone should warn you about that one guy.

Even him.

Another thing the sides agreed to: since unvaccinated players can’t enter Canada, they get no pay or service time for missed games in Toronto.

Was just informed by a customer that they agreed to ads on batting helmets.

Fucking yuck.

I hope the first are for Viagra.

If your at bat lasts longer than four hours, consult Nomar Garciaparra
