However, these leaks could cause serious problems for baseball. The next collective bargaining process between MLB and the players union occurs in two years, and these leaks of a supposedly anonymous test will not help. I think it may increase the distrust between the two groups, possibly leading to a standstill in which neither group trust (especially the players union) a word the other side says.
