Mike Trout says he speaks to MLBPA chief Tony Clark 'once a day' ahead of negotiations for new CBA

The Major League Baseball Players' Association, with just over nine months remaining in the current collective bargaining agreement, has been soliciting insight from some of its most prominent players -- and Mike Trout seemingly is among them.

Trout said Monday that he speaks with MLBPA executive director Tony Clark "probably once a day" as the union and MLB approach a critical juncture regarding negotiations for a new CBA.

MLB and the MLBPA have long been divided -- a reality that was evident in their inability to come to an agreement on the 2020 season amid the coronavirus pandemic.
