Major League Baseball and the Players Association remain far apart on a plan for the 2020 season, particularly as it pertains to economics and how many games would be scheduled for each team.
After rejecting the union’s request for full prorated salaries and a 114-game regular season, MLB countered with players potentially receiving 75% of their prorated salary over a 76-game slate.
The union is expected to decline that proposal by Wednesday’s deadline, leaving the two sides at odds as the midway point of June approaches.
What they have been able to find common ground on thus far is an expanded playoffs format.
