The start of the 2020 Major League Baseball season is just around the corner, although it remains unclear what format and terms it will be played under.
MLB commissioner Rob Manfred guaranteed that a season will take place even though the league and MLB Players Association continue to be apart on their financial negotiations.
The owners’ latest offer includes a 72-game regular season with players making 80% of their prorated salaries and the ability to earn some more if an expanded postseason is able to be fully completed.
That offer is not a whole lot different than the other three they’ve made and is still not near the full prorated salaries for an 89-game season the MLBPA recently proposed.
