Therefore, it's my gut that once again the players union will get involved and either a wording change, interpretation change etc. will be forthcoming.
We had 3 called in a 2 week span and I cannot remember one called prior to the one that started this.
Also, with the playoffs coming up it wouldn't shock me to see a change this quickly. Let's wait and see

Pete, the part of my post that you quoted was the only part that was not from Jim Evans. I have no source to quote on the last part there, just read it on some discussion board.
