Rockies podcast: How long MLB lockout will last, blame on Rob Manfred, ripple effects

In this edition of the On The Rox podcast, Denver Post sportswriters Kyle Newman and Patrick Saunders break down the cancellation of MLB Opening Day as the lockout wiped out the first two series of the 2022 season.

How many games will the Rockies and MLB lose before a new collective bargaining agreement is reached between the owners and the players association? Who is most to blame for baseball’s latest black eye? What should fans think of the roles commissioner Rob Manfred and Rockies owner Dick Monfort have played in the lockout? How much will the lockout hurt baseball’s already-dwindling fanbase and television viewership?

These questions, and more, are addressed in a packed episode analyzing MLB’s first labor-related work stoppage since 1994-95.
