Major League Baseball owners are reportedly set to push aggressively for a salary cap in upcoming labor negotiations, driven by frustration over big-market spending sprees. The move comes as the collective bargaining agreement nears expiration, raising fears of another work stoppage. Players' union leaders remain firmly opposed, viewing the cap as a tool to boost owner profits rather than improve competition.
