MLB Lockout Tracker: MLB spokesperson says ‘Missed games are missed games.’

Phillies Nation will be tracking the latest breaking news surrounding the MLB lockout all week long.

Wednesday Feb. 23: MLB put forth a counterproposal on the third-straight day of negotiations in Florida. The league reportedly raised its minimum salary proposal by $10,000, but the most notable bit of news from today came from an MLB spokesperson who confirmed that missed games will not be made up at a later time. If Opening Day is canceled, the regular season will not be 162-games long.

“Missed games are missed games. Feb. 28 is the deadline,” an MLB spokesperson told Michael Silverman of the Boston Globe.
