When MLB locked out the players, free agency wasn't the only thing that ground to a halt.
What's happening: Without a CBA, the league can't legally use players' likenesses in any official capacity, meaning MLB.com has been scrubbed of all stories and images of active players.
- Roster pages now feature faceless players, and the homepage is filled with arbitrary links.
- Players are having fun with it, changing their Twitter profiles to the avatars they'll be represented by until this labor nightmare ends.
