Monday's updates from the MLB lockout negotiations suggested there's a long way to go before an agreement is made. With the threat of regular-season games being canceled, things are looking glum as ever in regards to the 2022 MLB season. So glum, in fact, that one New York Yankees slugger has decided to sign up for LinkedIn in order to find some employment. Joey Gallo took to Twitter to show his hilarious new LinkedIn profile, suggesting that he doesn't think there will be much baseball played this season.

Gallo detailed his past experiences as an MLB player, citing his nine years as a member of the Texas Rangers, and the eight months he's played with the New York Yankees. He also referenced his high school education, having attended school at Bishop Gorman in Las Vegas, Nevada.

The Yankees slugger's skills section is truly incredible, with the slugger including “striking out,” “hitting into the shift,” and “getting dressed weird” among his most crucial talents.

While Gallo is just having a laugh on social media, this does paint a somber picture of the reality of the MLB lockout negotiations. Things have not progressed well between MLB and the MLBPA, and it could be a long while until the 2022 MLB season gets underway. With each passing update, the likelihood of a full regular season grows increasingly less likely. While the players are all keen to get back on the field, both sides have proven unwilling to shy away from their demands, resulting in a stalemate going on three months.
