MLB has created a proposal that would substantially reduce the amount of affiliated minor league teams, a restructuring that could affect not just the Atlanta Braves, but totally change the way Minor League Baseball is composed.

Major League Baseball and Minor League Baseball currently have an agreement — The Professional Baseball Agreement — that is set to expire in 2020.
