As we inch closer to Major League Baseball’s target return of early July, there is still plenty that needs to fall into place before that date becomes a reality.
According to a series of tweets from The New York Post’s Joel Sherman, there remains a large gap between the MLB and the MLBPA on an agreement to return to play.
Sherman also mentions that the two sides are not near an agreement regarding health and safety protocols. This, of course, is an imperative part of any agreement in getting players to agree to come back and play in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic.
