But with CBA stuff, you have to have a pretty sharp eye for where the information is coming from and why.

When it comes to – and maybe this is too early for this question –

Given the tone of things so far, given how you just laid out that that salary cap issue is going to be a sticking point until we hear otherwise, what is your optimism level or I guess pessimism level about where this thing will look maybe December 1st or if that's inevitable, you know, March 1st?

One is enough.

I don't need to be juggling two very detailed CBAs.

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Bullpen Day Works, State of Pirates & Cricket Day At The Park

You know, you got to know some of it for baseball right now, but having...

Blue Jays Talk
JTP: Bullpen Day Works, State of Pirates & Cricket Day At The Park

having parallel like shotgun CBAs might be a little too much, even for my, even for my spreadsheets.
