Report: MLB Proposes 76-Game Schedule With 75% Prorated Salaries

MLB has sent a new proposal to the MLB Players Association suggesting a 76-game season with 75% prorated salaries, according to ESPN's Karl Ravech.

Under the proposal, the 2020 regular season would start around July 10 and end on Sept. 27, while the postseason would conclude in late October, reports Ravech and MLB Network's Jon Heyman. The league initially set its sights on returning in time for July 4, but that timeline has been stalled while MLB and the MLBPA have negotiated for weeks to reach a deal on starting the season.

In March, the two sides reached an agreement that would prorate player's salaries based on the number of games played.
