With the MLB playoffs just around the corner, the focus across baseball is
usually on the excitement of the home stretch. But this year, there is
another topic looming over baseball: the ongoing labor battle.
隨著 MLB 季後賽即將到來，棒球界的焦點通常會集中在例行賽衝刺階段的刺激氛圍上。
但今年，有另一個議題籠罩著棒球界：持續進行中的勞資爭議。
Just how often are conversations about CBA topics taking place in MLB
clubhouses? How do players really feel about a salary cap, their MLB Players
Association leadership and how this round of negotiations compares to
previous years? Do big leaguers think a lockout that will shorten the 2027
MLB season is ahead?
在 MLB 球員休息室裡，關於 CBA (Collective Bargaining Agreement，勞資協議) 議題
的討論到底有多頻繁？球員們對於薪資上限、MLBPA (MLB Players Association，大聯盟
球員工會) 領導層的真實看法為何？這一輪談判與以往相比又是如何？大聯盟球員們是否
認為未來會出現縮短 2027 年 MLB 賽季的封館？
We asked more than two dozen current major leaguers for their unfiltered
answers on the state of MLB's labor negotiations, granting them anonymity to
ensure they could speak freely and openly. Here is what they had to say.
我們詢問了二十多位現役大聯盟球員，了解他們對 MLB 勞資談判現狀最真實無保留的看
法，並給予匿名保護以確保他們能坦率且公開地發言。以下是他們的說法。
───────────────────────────────────────
How open are you to a salary cap?
你對薪資上限的接受度有多高？
NL starting pitcher entering arbitration: Not open.
國聯進入仲裁階段的先發投手：不接受。
NL infielder making eight figures annually: Zero. No chance.
國聯年薪達八位數的內野手：零。沒機會。
NL infielder on two-year contract: Zero. Absolute zero.
國聯簽下兩年合約的內野手：零。絕對是零。
AL catcher entering arbitration: I need more information, but perhaps I would
listen on it.
美聯進入仲裁階段的捕手：我需要更多資訊，但或許我願意聽聽看。
NL pre-arbitration journeyman: From what I've been told, I don't think it's
good for the game. I just don't know if I know all the pros and cons of it.
But, from everything we've been told, it doesn't sound like it's a good thing.
國聯尚未取得仲裁資格的浪人球員：根據我所聽到的，我不認為這對這項運動有好處。我
只是不確定自己是否了解所有的優缺點。但是從我們被告知的一切來看，這聽起來不像是
一件好事。
NL reliever on multiyear contract: With the right criteria, I'd be open to it.
國聯簽下多年合約的中繼投手：如果在適當的條件下，我持開放態度。
AL starting pitcher in arbitration: I don't want it. In '94, they canceled
the World Series, so if those guys can miss over half a year and miss the
World Series, I think we're fully prepared to hold out for sure.
美聯進入仲裁階段的先發投手：我不想看到薪資上限。在 1994 年，他們取消了世界大賽
(World Series)，所以如果前輩們能缺席半年以上並放棄世界大賽，我想我們絕對做好了
挺身抗爭的準備。
NL rookie making the minimum, signed for first-round bonus: It's not
something you want to hear. I know the other sports have it, but baseball has
always been different.
國聯拿領底薪、曾簽下首輪簽約金的新人：這不是你會想聽到的事。我知道其他體育項目
有薪資上限，但棒球一直以來都不一樣。
AL infielder making eight figures this season: I've seen how it affects long
term. If you look at the other leagues and everything like that. So, most
likely not. Because that's the whole point, is they're going to make it look
really good for the first one. But then every five years, we're going to have
to renegotiate, we're going to have no power and they're just going to keep
cutting our piece of the pie smaller. So the first one will look good.
美聯本季年薪達八位數的內野手：我見識過這對長遠發展的影響。如果你去看看其他聯盟
和類似的情況。所以，極可能不接受。因為重點就在於，資方會讓第一份協議看起來非常
誘人。但之後每五年我們都必須重新談判，我們將失去籌碼，而他們只會不斷把我們的餅
越分越小。所以第一份協議看起來會很美。
NL starting pitcher making seven figures this season: The thing that
strengthens the argument against it is the first year of the cap, or the
first offer of the cap, is going to sound decent on paper and people are
going to look at it that don't know about the system and say, 'Oh, why
wouldn't they be OK with that?' Go look at what salary cap revenue
percentages have done [after the first year]. It starts at 53%, starts at
54%. ... The way that salary caps have been squeezed is inherently the reason
we won't break.
國聯本季年薪達七位數的先發投手：強化反對立場的原因在於，薪資上限發行的第一年，
或者說第一個報價，在紙面上聽起來會很體面。不了解這個體系的人會說：「哦，他們為
什麼會不同意？」你去看看薪資上限占收入的百分比在［第一年之後］發生了什麼變化。
從 53% 開始，從 54% 開始……薪資上限利潤被壓榨的方式，本質上就是我們絕不妥協的
原因。
NL infielder on a lucrative contract: Get ready to see a bunch of
schoolteachers and whatnot out there, because we're not playing if there's a
cap.
國聯簽下高額合約的內野手：準備好看到一堆學校老師或其他人上場比賽吧，因為如果實
施薪資上限，我們就不打了。
───────────────────────────────────────
Would you be open to a salary cap if the league shows it can help you
individually make more money?
如果聯盟能證明薪資上限能幫你個人賺更多錢，你會對此持開放態度嗎？
NL pre-arbitration journeyman: That's a good question ... This is all
anonymous? I mean, probably, yeah.
國聯尚未取得仲裁資格的浪人球員：這是個好問題……這真的是匿名的嗎？我的意思是，
大概會吧，對。
NL starting pitcher on multiyear contract: I don't know how that would be
possible. But I guess possibly.
國聯簽下多年合約的先發投手：我不知道這要怎麼可能發生。但我猜想是有可能的。
NL infielder on a multiyear extension: No, because that's not true.
國聯簽下多年提前續約合約的內野手：不，因為那不是真的。
NL rookie making the minimum, signed for first-round bonus: I think we should
always listen. Both sides should. I'll let our leadership determine what's
right.
國聯領底薪、曾簽下首輪簽約金的新人：認為我們永遠應該傾聽。雙方都應該如此。我會
讓我們的領導層來決定什麼才是對的。
Reliever with union leadership role: With rare exception, or it would have to
be crazy external circumstances, the cap is going to be bad for players, the
player group in general. So, yeah, even if I can benefit specifically, it's
about the whole.
擔任工會領導職務 (union leadership role) 的中繼投手：除非有極罕見的例外，或是
發生極端瘋狂的外在環境變化，否則薪資上限整體而言對球員、對球員群體都是不利的。
所以，是的，即使我自己能從中受益，這事關整體利益。
NL free-agent-to-be coming off multiyear deal: We've been taught to think of
everyone, not just an individual.
國聯多年合約即將到期並成為自由球員的投手/野手：我們受到的教育是為所有人著想，而
不僅僅是個人。
Reliever approaching arbitration: It's bad for everybody else, so, no, I
wouldn't accept it. It's about all of us. And the thought that a veteran
player is going to get $10 million under the system instead of eight

薪資上限怎麼幫球員賺更多？

基本上都是反對 但也有幾個感覺不是不能被說服

規定比現在平均還高的下限 這樣球員的總薪水理論上會變多舉例平均薪資180M 下限設定181M的話球員就多拿30M了

我已經忘記2021年封館怎麼樣了 雷聲大雨點小

2021就演好演滿但還是準時開季

搞不好重演1994？順帶一提：北美四大聯賽還真的有一家「全年封館」答案也很明顯 就是冰球NHL，2005的冰球封館導致ESPN放棄了NHL轉播長達13年

現在30支球隊平均薪資在2.05億鎂左右拿130億鎂當聯盟收益，分配已經超過47%設下限撈不到幾根毛

下限高可能上限低，球團老闆又不是傻了兩個都開高最終上下限的數字一定會鎖在球團老闆想的數字裡，最多讓步下限，上限鎖著才比較省錢

看到一句話很真實 “因為重點就在於，資方會讓第一份協議看起來非常誘人。但之後每五年我們都必須重新談判，我們將失去籌碼，而他們只會不斷把我們的餅越分越小。所以第一份協議看起來會很美。” 就像是MLB官方這幾年開始放出獨家轉播權 結果看個比賽你還要訂閱Apple tv還是Netflix 買MLB tv動不動就在漲價 觀看還瘋狂被限制 你怎麼會認為資方主動提案的東西會是為了球員 未來世界大賽可能也要訂閱複數平台你才有辦法觀看完Final Series

有幾位講的很清楚 第一份會很優渥 但之後球員因為失去最大的籌碼 只會每次談判被予取予求 其他運動發生過很多次了
