I think the players need to throw a lot at the owners, ELCs, service time, baseball revenue definition, minor league pay/benefits, etc. They should be willing to give on some of it, but they should also be ready to strike if they don't get some big movement their way.

I'm fine with moving to a system that rewards current/future performance more than past, but the system now makes it impossible to earn when you're young and more and more difficult to earn when you're older. Players need to be ready to walk if that isn't changed significantly.
