Philadelphia Phillies First Baseman Bryce Harper told MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred Last week during a meeting aimed at tackling the league potentially implementing a pay lid, according to sources that spoke with ESPN today.
The alternation took place during one of the commissioner’s planned meetings with the 30 MLB teams. Although Manfred never used the term “pay lid”, the conversation about the league economy led to Bryce Harper.
Sources who attended the meeting told Espn that Harper, who remained silent for most of the session, said that players “are not afraid to lose 162 games”, which means that the MLB players would be willing to stage a strike as they did from April 1994 to April 1995. Harper was left at the nose head before saying: ” Remove F*CK Clubhouse “. Manfred replied that “I was not going to remove the F*CK here”, explaining that it is important to talk about the economic health of the league.
Phillies campers, Nick Castellanos, was able to avoid the situation by saying, “I have more questions,” which broke the confrontation. The meeting continued, ending with Bryce Harper and Manfred shaking hands. However, Harper refused to accept any of the Commissioner’s telephone calls the next day.
“It was quite intense, no doubt passionate,” said Castellanos. “Both. The commissioner is returned to Bryce, and Bryce returned to the commissioner. This is harp. He has been doing since 15 years. It’s another day. I was not surprised.”
Both Harper and a spokesman for Rob Manfred refused to comment when they arrived in Espn.
“Rob seems to be in a fairly desperate place about the importance of achieving this pay lid because the word” lock “is floating two years before our collective bargaining agreement,” said Castellanos. “This is nothing to launch. This is the same as I in a marriage” I think divorce is a possibility. Will probably happen. “
Major League basketball must negotiate a new collective bargaining agreement (CBA) with players for the 2026 season. The current CBA will expire at midnight on December 2 2026.
“It’s not that someone shows us about this basketball conglomerate in the major league than us, the players, make us possible,” Castellanos continued. “There are no players, no major league basketball. I don’t think Rob Manfred is bad. I don’t think the owners are bad. I don’t think anyone wants a work break in basketball. Not the players or the league.”
