Report: Derek Jeter to Forgo Salary Indefinitely, Marlins Executives Take Pay Cuts

Marlins CEO Derek Jeter will forgo his salary indefinitely amid the sports shutdown, according to SportsGrid's Craig Mish.

Sources told Mish that members of Miami's executive team have agreed to take pay cuts and Jeter informed the club's baseball operations staff on a conference call on Monday that they will receive their current pay through at least May 31.

The Marlins' decision comes at a time of heavy uncertainty for MLB while the start of the 2020 season remains unknown during the coronavirus pandemic. The Braves, Phillies and Giants reportedly will pay employees through May 31, but MLB could reach a decision this week that will provide teams will flexibility for paying non-playing personnel.
