MLB lockout threatens 60+ games if negotiators miss deadline

The athletic director outlined that MLB is now incentivized to not lose more than 60 games in the ongoing lockout, with the threshold becoming the real deadline for negotiations.

ReadingThis is the moment when economics replaces rhetoric. The 60-game threshold is where player compensation meets owner revenue guarantees, and neither side survives past it.
WatchWatch for either side to file a federal labor complaint within the next 10 days. That is how you know negotiations have moved off the table and into the courts.
