The MLB lockout has been dragging on since December 2, halting any communication between teams and players, delaying the start of spring training and possibly cancelling regular season games.
And if an agreement is not reached with the Players’ Association by tomorrow, the MLB has said that the start of the season will be pushed back and regular games will be cancelled. Four weeks is the minimum amount of spring training that’s reasonable for players to warm up with, but everything is up in the air right now. Hopefully we will see some movement in the next few days.
