No both sides arguments from Ken Rosenthal this morning. He doesn't pull any punches in his column about the status of negotatiations placing this crisis of lost games on Manfred's lap. 1/
He goes on to make some of the points I've been making regarding the owners treating this as a zero sum game and a cavalier disregard about missing games - he stops short of the reason for that, which I've said is a misguided belief that they can break the union. 2/
Ken goes on to make a point that @joe_sheehan has been making for a while now: the current Union offer on the table is a big win for management. They should take it. 3/
Ken goes on provide baseball twitter's position on the matter, but throws in a zinger about how every time Manfred talks he alienates fans. I've posted how union organizers always say "the best organizer is a bad boss." But, this is even more than that. 4/
And, then the coup de grace. As John McLain said, "welcome to the party pal!" We're glad to have you with us Ken.
It's John McClane. So much for writing off the top of my head without any research.
