I agree with that much. They made things incredibly difficult in 2020 and they're being stubborn as hell now too (it's hard to comprehend that the existence of an international draft years from now would be any kind of a legitimate sticking point for the MLBPA).

There's a deal to be made here if both sides were actually willing to make one, but that doesn't appear to be the goal of either side at the moment.
