## Resource

The FT crew reacts to MLB’s latest CBA proposals (including a dead signing period in November and January) and we debate how the proposed changes could reshape the sport. (21:41) Reinforcements could be on the way for baseball's hottest second-half team, as MassLive's Chris Cotillo gives the latest on Roman Anthony's potential return to Boston. Cotillo breaks down the tough roster decisions surrounding Anthony's comeback and explains how the Fenway Faithful have reacted to a slow start to Adley Rutschman's Red Sox career. With owner John Henry front and center for the show, can an already red-hot Boston club find another gear for the stretch run?
