NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) — Many experts in the sports world say this a key week for Major League Baseball and its hopes for a return this season.
The league has made another proposal in hopes of resuming play, but there’s one potential stumbling block. The players would be asked to sign an acknowledgement of risk waiver before playing.
One source told CBS2’s Otis Livingston that players believe the waiver is designed to undermine their right to challenge the league if it fails to provide a safe working environment.
The current proposal on the table would be for a 76-game schedule, with the season finishing Sept.
