Paul Skenes, Juan Soto and Bryce Harper are among baseballs All-Stars who say players will never agree to a salary cap but maintain theres plenty of time to avoid a conflict that could shorten the 2027 season. "Both sides kind of have their line that theyre not going to cross," Skenes, the Pittsburgh Pirates ace who is also a member of the union's eight-man negotiating committee, said Monday. "Whether that results in missing games or missing a season, well see." Baseball's five-year labor contract expires Dec. 1 and MLB is expected to immediately lock out players. The more consequential deadline is in late February or early March, when Major League Baseball would announce whether it was postponing opening day. Owners proposed a salary cap for the first time since the union fought off MLB's cap plan with a 7 1/2-month strike in 1994-95 that caused the first cancellation of the World Series since 1904. Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred says a cap is needed to lessen payroll disparity. Soto, who signed a record $765 million, 15-year-old contract with the New York Mets as a free agent after the 2024 season, would be limited to a $265 million, six-year deal under MLB's proposal. "It shouldnt be there," Soto said. MLBs proposal would cap spending in 2027 at $245.3 million, using figures for luxury tax payrolls that include $20.1 million for benefits and the pre-arbitration bonus pool. It also would establish a payroll floor of $171.2 million, forcing some teams to spend more. The Los Angeles Dodgers, baseballs biggest spenders, had a $415.2 million payroll on opening day this year. MLB has not made a proposal on how to phase in a cap, a process that would be key for high-spending clubs such as the Dodgers. Los Angeles Angels outfielder Mike Trout, at 34 in the eighth season of a $426.5 million, 12-year contract, said players are aware of the proposal's intent. "Its trying to minimize the years and obviously the totals. For sure, we see that," he said. "I think baseball's in a good spot right now, and we cant mess this up." Harper, in the eighth season of a $330 million, 13-year contract with Philadelphia, said he couldn't conceive of any scenario in which the players' association would agree to a cap. "The opportunity for players to get paid is what this is all about," Harper said, citing the union's legacy of fighting MLB since Curt Flood helped unite players in the 1970s. "We owe it to the guys that have come before us to do the same thing." Harper, who signed his first contract at age 17, also vowed to fight MLB's proposal to ban a player from signing until he was at least 20 years old by the Sept. 1 of his signing year and two years removed from the graduating year of his high school class. MLB says college baseball provides a better development path. "If youre in the top three rounds as a high school kid, I think you should be able to do whatever you want," Harper said. "It would really be tough for a guy like Jackson Holliday to not be the number one pick and not get the chance to go to the big leagues at 19 or 18 if hes able to." Bargaining began in May and is expected to resume after the All-Star break. The union has asked for expanded free agency and salary arbitration rights along with almost doubling the major league minimum. Pirates pitcher Braxton Ashcraft viewed the early negotiations as "back-and-forth proposals that may or may not be unrealistic." Skenes, a 24-year-old right-hander in his second full big league season, could see a sharp decrease in potential contract offers under MLB's system. He is currently on track to become a free agent after the 2029 season and has a $1,085,000 salary in his last season before arbitration eligibility. He also has earned nearly $5.6 million from the pre-arbitration bonus pool that started in 2022. "MLB is kind of presenting their perfect-world offers, and were kind of presenting our perfect-world offers," Skenes said. "So theres a lot of time before theres any real movement, I think." San Diego's Mason Miller, baseball's top closer, also could become a free agent following the 2029 season. A 27-year-old right-hander, he is earning $4 million this season. "I still have some optimism," he said. "The place that the game's at right now, I think killing that momentum is kind of fruitless for everybody." Reporting by the Associated Press.

Jerry Jones' $96 million investment at guard is already paying off according to executives around the league originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.Tyler Smith just gave Jerry Jones all the validation he needs.ESPN's annual position rankings, compiled by polling league executives, coaches, and scouts, have the Cowboys guard as the No. 1 interior offensive lineman in football heading into 2026. He moved up one spot from last year to take the crown.Dallas heavily backed the 25-year-old in September 2025 with a four-year, $96 million contract extension, making him the highest-paid guard in the NFL. The 2022 first-round pick out of Tulsa started his career at tackle before moving inside, and he has completely lived up to the price tag.With three straight Pro Bowls and a 2023 All-Pro nod, he has firmly established himself as the best in the game. According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, Smith gets paid like the best because he plays like it.His numbers, blocking successfully on 72.1% of run plays and 95.2% of passes, aren't the absolute highest in the league, but the game film shows his real dominance.As one AFC executive noted, Smith has a "rare combination of size, athleticism, strength and finish." The exec even compared him to a legendary offensive lineman, saying, "He's like prime Jason Peters playing guard." Another executive added, "He has more flash plays than anybody.That comparison carries some real history. Peters was a nine-time Pro Bowler who actually played his final NFL season with Dallas back in 2022, mentoring Smith during his rookie year.However, evaluators noted that Smith still needs to clean up his technique and play with more control, which makes sense since he is still perfecting the transition from tackle to guard.His undeniable talent allowed him to jump all the way to the top spot, passing Kansas City center Creed Humphrey, who fell to third, while Colts star Quenton Nelson took the No. 2 spot.Without any doubt, he gives Dallas a foundational piece to protect Dak Prescott and anchor the running game. The front office took a massive financial decision by making him the highest-paid guard in football. And the league's top talent evaluators agree the decision was worth every penny.More NFL news:Josh Allen earns honor Patrick Mahomes held for yearsJerry Jones could soon face an unexpected Christian Parker problemDak Prescott gets positive George Pickens update before Cowboys campNFL coaches admit they were wrong about one part of Lamar Jackson's gameCowboys lack a proven one-on-one winner off the edge and training camp may expose that fast

CITIZENS BANK BALLPARK (Philadelphia) Mike Trout circled this date months ago. Tuesday's MLB All-Star Game sits 45 minutes from Millville, New Jersey, where Trout grew up rooting for the Phillies and bleeding Eagles green. Getting back here was personal. Staying healthy was the hard part. Trout hadn't started an All-Star Game since 2019. He hadn't even been selected to one since 2023. "I'm never taking anything for granted in this game," Trout told me on Monday. This year, fans voted Trout in as a starting outfielder, a slash line of .237/.390/.473, 18 homers, 39 RBIs, and his most stolen bases (seven) since his 2019 MVP season carrying him there. Then a hamstring strain in mid-June threatened to keep him home again. But, just 17 missed games later, Trout was back in the Angels' lineup as a designated hitter just days before the All-Star break. He was healthy and headed to Philly. For the 12-time All-Star who has spent a career as the face of this game, it wasn't just a return. It was a relief. "You don't know when your last game is," Trout said. "When an injury can pop up. Especially the last few years, it's been a little bit tough for me. I'm just excited to start." Its easy to see that starting the All-Star Game means a lot to Trout. Trout found it tough to explain just how meaningful it is for him to be leading off for the American League on Tuesday. He slowed down when reflecting on how difficult the past few years have been for him as he dealt with a laundry list of injuries that limited him to playing just 396 games for five seasons from 2021-2025, or roughly 79 games per season. Plus, he didnt want to let down his family and friends with a big contingent scheduled to make the short trip to Philly this week. "Well, I only have 20 tickets," Trout said. "I mean, that's a lot. So I had to cut it down a little bit. I know a lot of people that are coming. It's been on the calendar for a while." Trouts celebrity status runs deep. Besides pitcher Justin Verlander, who announced hes retiring at the end of this season and is at the All-Star Game as the Commissioner's Legend Pick, Trout had the largest media scrum among all AL players on Monday. And Trout also has a huge fan in the ALs All-Star clubhouse, though hes completely unaware that this player grew up idolizing him years before he became, well, Mike Trout. "I learned a lot from him and he doesnt know it," fellow AL All-Star and Twins outfielder Byron Buxton told me on Monday. "But I learned a lot from him growing up. I even watched him in the minor leagues." Buxton and Trout share more similarities than their star power. Both players are homegrown, one-team-for-life talents. And both, oddly enough, once wore a Cedar Rapids Kernels uniform. The minor-league franchise spent 20 years as the Angels' Single-A affiliate before flipping to the Twins in 2013. Trout came first. He played 81 games there in 2010, an 18-year-old outfielder on his way up. Two years later, after a show-stopping big-league debut when Trout recorded the highest WAR (10.5) in MLB, he won the AL Rookie of the Year award, and Cedar Rapids hung his picture at Veterans Memorial Stadium. Buxton followed in 2013, a 19-year-old outfielder playing 68 games in a Cedar Rapids uniform in the same ballpark. "Every day I walked in, I got to see his picture," Buxton said. "Man, he was on the top of my list as someone I watched all the time." Even that small similarity with Trout playing for the same minor-league affiliate as him thanks to a team change used to remind Buxton that he was on the right path in his baseball journey. Buxton even tried to copy Trouts physical build. Even though the Twins outfielder debuted in the big leagues in 2015 as a skinny speedster, he added 21 pounds of muscle before the 2019 season to try and add more slug to his game. "Coming up, he played the game 110%," Buxton said of emulating Trouts game. "100% down the line. Putting his body on the line, and things like that. It was something that, when I came up, I was like, alright. That's how I wanna be. Obviously I wasn't his size, or like the body build that he has. You had to kind of find that the more you played throughout your career. And it's something that, over the years, I figured out my frame to where I look back and I'm like, alright, I'm like him now." This is the second time that Buxton has shared a clubhouse with Trout, both having been named All-Stars in 2022 despite Trout not appearing in the game. He wouldve shared a lineup with him if the Minnesota outfielder wasn't on the injured list with a hip strain. While theyre both in Philly, does Buxton plan on telling Trout how much he influenced his career? "Nah, I'll let him do his own thing," Buxton said. "Maybe after he retires. Which is a long time from now for him." In reality, Trout should be used to being a hero to his peers. Cardinals manager Oli Marmol, who was selected by NL manager Dave Roberts to be a part of his All-Star coaching staff, told me that Trout garners a ton of respect from players of all ages, all around the league, because they admire his tenacity. After dealing with numerous injuries, particularly later in his career, Trout is still playing at an MVP-caliber level when hes healthy enough to take the field. "Hes had his struggles, but hes come out on the other side of it," Marmol said. "He can speak to both sides of handling failure and success, and the longevity that he brings to the table speaks for itself." Like Buxton, so many of this years All-Stars grew up watching the three-time MVP become a staple at every All-Star Game. Royals All-Star shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. was asked multiple times in his media scrum on Monday who he most enjoyed watching growing up, and every time, his answer was Trout. From 2012-2019, Trout had an incredible run of being selected for eight consecutive All-Star Games. Not only was he statistically the best player in the major leagues for the majority of that run, but he also embodied what it meant to play the game the right way. "It's so cool to share a locker room with him," Tigers All-Star infielder Kevin McGonigle told me. "Lately, I've appreciated the way he plays the game and understanding what it takes to get his body ready to be on the field. It's a grind, and he's been doing this a long time." "He was always the guy I looked up to, just by how he plays the game," Orioles All-Star catcher Adley Rutschman told me. "His attitude and his ability. It seemed like he played the game right, and in a way that I really admired. Just seemed like he goes about stuff in the right way. And I love that. It's been awesome to get to know him a little better. Talk with him a little bit. He's just an awesome guy and a great player." Trout is too modest to spend any time thinking about how much of an impact hes made on his peers and baseball fans alike. Still, he understands that part of being a veteran is imparting some wisdom to the younger generation. So, on Monday, he shared some advice with All-Star first-timers. "Just enjoy it," Trout said. "It goes by quick. So slow everything down. It's pretty simple. These next two days go by quick, so enjoy every moment. Capture it. Take pictures. Enjoy it with your family. It's a special honor to be here."
