Mr. Colon, thank you so much for doing this chat and congratulations on your career.  What one or two issues do you see as the most important for the MLBPA in the current bargaining?  If there was one thing you could change, what would it be? Thanks again.
Christian Colon
1:35
I think the fact that it has reached the media is very hard to negotiate that way. Players are trying to set up things for the next generation and owners are very smart business people and they have to have respect for one another and get it done asap.

I know every MLB player looks back at their career differently and through a different lens, but knowing what you do now, do you have any regrets? Would you have done anything differently throughout your professional career? Advice you wish you had taken (or not taken)? Thank you for doing this chat. Much appreciated.
Christian Colon
1:38
Absolutely we all have regrets but at the same time I am happy with what I was able to accomplish and that’s bigger than my regrets. Thankful for that.
