David, thanks for the insight into the baseball negotiations. I admit to not following them close, as I am interested in BASEBALL, not the millionaire negotiations behind it. So I appreciate someone kind of summing it up. (The Monfort thing is actually quite interesting.) Also, if you ever want to add football to your repertoire, you make some great points. I have had several of the same thoughts this week regarding the previous game; Chiefs' LT situation, Kelce and Hill with a down game, as well as the Bengals winning with 19 last week. Plus, there was a feeling that last KC-CIN game was poorly officiated, largely to the Chiefs detriment. Burrows even acknowledged it. That will hopefully not be repeated.
David, I read yesterday that the plan on WAR for arbitration was to average fWAR and bWAR (saw it on Twitter and don't know who said it, so take it with a grain of salt). You make good points and ask good questions about the nuts and bolts of how WAR would be applied for partial season players, pitchers v hitters, etc.
David, I'm going to Phoenix the first week of March like you. If there is no CBA, do you know if there will be minor league games? Will the back fields be open?
David, great insights. Since it is obvious from this edition of Inside the Crown you have your eye on other sports I would like to see your thoughts on what insights MLB can take from the other s sports leagues in the USA. How they run their business and how leadership at the owners and players level impact the different leagues operating structure. If you have done something similar in the past please pass on a link to the story.

Who's one free agent the Royals should sign when the lockout ends? I'll go first: Michael Conforto.
