Get ready Minnesota Twins fans: Major League Baseball could be returning, and as soon as the first week of July.
Minnesota Twins baseball could be back in July if the new Major League Proposal is accepted by the player’s union. Though it’s up in the air in terms of if the deal will be accepted by the players, who are upset over the five round draft and player decompensation.
If the season does resume in July, here’s a look at what the MLB’s proposal would include:
- 82-game regional schedule and universal DH
- 30-man active rosters with a 20-player taxi squad
- 14 teams in the postseason with games played in home cities in October
- 50/50 revenue split for players and owners
The 82 game regional schedule and universal DH isn’t a huge deal and shouldn’t be a sticking point combined with 30-man rosters and a 20-player taxi squad.
