Report: MLBPA may hold separate Spring Training for free agents

Yahoo! Sports Tim Brown reports that the Major League Baseball Players Association is scouting sites and making arrangements to hold its own Spring Training for as many as 100 unsigned free agents.

With camps set to open in Arizona and Florida next week, Brown says the MLBPA is investigating whether or not a 31st camp is necessary. Brown also reports that the union is looking into coaches and other personnel to staff the facility.

The possibility of a separate Spring Training camp is the latest in a tumultuous week between the league and the players association.
