Message: [QUOTE="chugg21, post: 3457789, member: 3360"] This whole thing has to be screwing up Beane's plans so badly. Had room to lock up 2 or all 3 of those guys needing deals this summer with expected $15m or so cap jump as usual. Now has no idea if cap is going to stay flat or perhaps go down if there is no agreement to smooth it out. Can't imagine the players are looking to take less than they planned on if the cap goes down either so it creates a real mess. The only upside is that if we have good management like I think we do that this could actually create an opportunity for a team that has space available and a good young core. [/QUOTE]
