Beckles & Recher welcome Bally Sports Sun Rays analyst Orestes Destrade into our studio on Tuesday to go in depth on why there's a baseball lockout and how the issues surrounding the lockout can be solved. Orestes says a major issue is the luxury tax, which in effect, creates a salary cap that some teams cannot compete with. To that note, a team has to learn how to play the system in order to get ahead if they can't compete financially. And the Rays are one of those teams that has found a formula to compete with the big boys: exceptional drafting, developing, coaching, scouting and trading. All this and a lot more, as Orestes gets down and dirty into the nuances of the lockout.
