MLB swings and misses by stripping All-Star Game of importance
The long awaited MLB CBA has finally been agreed upon and it seems the MLB offseason should become quite busy in the near future. However, the CBA itself is an interesting point of discussion. Qualifying offers won't necessarily cost first round draft picks, rosters will not expand to 26 players, the international draft has been squashed, and the luxury tax threshold will increase to $210 million in five years. Another noteworthy piece is the fact that the All-Star Game will no longer determine home field advantage for the World Series. Via USA TODAY
