Getting your player ready...
In this edition of the On The Rox podcast, Denver Post sportswriters Kyle Newman and Patrick Saunders break down the ongoing MLB lockout and the likely delay for the start of 2022 spring training.
Is there any way the lockout, which began Dec. 2, could affect the regular season? What are the main issues at stake between the owners and the Major League Baseball Players Association? What will it take for both sides to compromise on a new collective bargaining agreement?
These questions are addressed plus more baseball analysis on Rockies’ top prospect Zac Veen as well as what Colorado should do in free agency once the lockout ends.
