This is interesting.

The White Sox players left Seattle on July 20 without paying clubhouse dues and tips, objecting to a new Mariners policy that redirects 60 percent of the dues into an account managed by the team, according to major-league sources.
The players’ association, seeking uniformity in clubhouse protocols – as well as safeguards against management intrusion into the clubhouse space – has raised the issues in collective bargaining, sources said. The current labor agreement expires Dec. 1.

Clubhouse attendants long have been part of baseball’s hidden fabric, serving players’ various needs. The players, in turn, consider “clubbies” an extension of the player fraternity and often tip them generously.

The White Sox players withheld their money because Mariners management unilaterally entered a financial relationship that historically has existed between only players and “clubbies,” sources said.

The Chicago White Sox must have been paid an obscene amount of money to change naming rights of their stadium (formerly U.S. Cellular Field, and the second Comiskey Field) to Guaranteed Rate Field for a deal that will run through 2030. As expected, the team are getting an avalanche of ridicule over the new name, especially since part of the Guaranteed Rate logo is an arrow pointing downward.

No matter what people think of Orioles ownership, at least we have yet to deal with the sort of public embarrassment that comes from having your team play in Royal Farms World Famous Chicken Park, or 877.241.LUNA Field, or whatever.
