Two of the biggest free-agents ever.
Both 26 and seeking $300 million+ deals.
Neither signed and spring training starting.
Owners say they've learned their lesson, and that it's not collusion. Many teams want Machado or Harper, but they have learned the lesson of history. IF you don't sign them immediately, their price will go down. Owners say they can be patient on a 10-year deal. In a few more weeks, the players will sign for less.
It's not collusion. It's common business sense.
The players no longer have the winning card. Owners do. And it's hard to argue with them.
Unless, of course, courts get involved.
As usual, the clock is ticking.
