Baseball strike looms as players toughen stance
With a two week strike deadline, star players face large losses per day of stoppage. Bobby Bonilla would lose $31,148 daily, totaling $1.62 million over 52 days, while Jack McDowell faces $28,692 daily and $1.51 million total. Roberto Alomar and Clemens would each lose about $27,322 daily, about $1.42 million. Union officials say players refuse a salary cap and will strike to defend the current system amid contentious talks involving Fehr, Ueberroth, Vincent, and team owners.
