New MLBPA boss puts Cubs players on notice with warning that feels unavoidable

Drama took center stage for the MLB Players Association this week as Tony Clark resigned from his position as the union's executive director. Clark's resignation came after an internal investigation was completed, and chief negotiator Bruce Meyer was elected as his replacement. Meyer spent most of Wednesday meeting with players throughout the league, and that included an ominous warning to Chicago Cubs players.

Of course, every movement by the MLBPA will be scrutinized over the course of the next year, considering the current CBA is set to expire in December. While both sides have expressed public optimism that a lockout can be avoided, that wasn't the message that Meyer had when he met with the Cubs this week.
