  • The Effects of Collective Bargaining on Minor League Baseball Players
    \\jciprod01\productn\H\HLS\4-1\HLS102.txt unknown Seq: 1 14-MAY-13 15:57 Touching Baseball’s Untouchables: The Effects of Collective Bargaining on Minor League Baseball Players Garrett R. Broshuis* Abstract Collective bargaining has significantly altered the landscape of labor relations in organized baseball. While its impact on the life of the major league player has garnered much discussion, its impact on the majority of professional baseball players—those toiling in the minor leagues—has re- ceived scant attention. Yet an examination of every collective bargaining agreement between players and owners since the original 1968 Basic Agree- ment reveals that collective bargaining has greatly impacted minor league players, even though the Major League Baseball Players Association does not represent them. While a few of the effects of collective bargaining on the minor league player have been positive, the last two agreements have estab- lished a dangerous trend in which the Players Association consciously con- cedes an issue with negative implications for minor leaguers in order to receive something positive for major leaguers. Armed with a court-awarded antitrust exemption solidified by legisla- tion, Major League Baseball has continually and systematically exploited mi- * Prior to law school, the author played six years as a pitcher in the San Francisco Giants’ minor league system and wrote about life in the minors for The Sporting News and Baseball America. He has represented players as an agent and is a J.D. Candidate, 2013, at Saint Louis University School of Law. The author would like to thank Professor Susan A. FitzGibbon, Director, William C.

  • Replacements As a Labor Weapon: a 300-Pound Linebacker the Union Leaders Never Saw Coming
    REPLACEMENTS AS A LABOR WEAPON: A 300-POUND LINEBACKER THE UNION LEADERS NEVER SAW COMING THOMAS LLOYD Forever A Memorable Game The stage was set for easily one of the most memorable games between National Football League division rivals Washington Redskins and Dallas Cowboys. It was mid-October and each team had amassed a 3-1 record, sufficient for a two-way tie for first place in the NFC East, and fans responded appropriately. Cowboy fans had Texas Stadium humming with a near capacity crowd of 60,612.1 Back in Washington D.C., over 600,000 homes turned their televisions to ABC to watch the Monday Night Football showdown.2 But this could arguably be expected, as division rivalry games usually result in increased fan interest, especially when it’s the top seeds playing on a Monday Night. However, this time was different. The year was 1987 and this was no regular game. Rather, it was the 42nd and final game to be played with replacement players in the NFL. The players’ strike, headed by NFL Players Association (NFLPA) President Gene Upshaw, had been called off four full days prior – one day too late to meet the owners’ deadline that would allow the regulars to play that week. The regular Washington Redskins, like all other football squads, had only played the season’s first two regular season games before the strike sent them to the picket lines. After the entire league took the third week off to allow the building of replacement squads, NFL fans would see replacement-powered games for three straight weeks.
