Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 3407502, member: 652"] Trout is the outlier. If you were scheduled to make 10 million for this year for example. Under the owners first proposal that player would have made 4 million dollars. Under this new proposal that player would make 3.1 million dollars. The owners are throwing a few more bucks at the top guys now and hoping that is enough. The owners want 50 games because they can’t do 82 games without having to pay the players the prorated amounts due in the contract. If the owners just did the 82 game schedule with prorated contracts the deal would get done pretty easily. [/QUOTE]
