MLB’s economic proposal to players includes extreme sliding scale

This is a big week for the sport of baseball and MLB more specifically, as we are closing in on June 1. In an ideal world, if there is going to be baseball in 2020 it seems like the league would like to get their “spring training” started by June 10 in order to get the regular season going within a week or so of the start of July. Obviously, if that is going to happen they are going to need to have a deal in place sooner than later.

Leading up to this week, we have heard that the owners are not going to start a season with the deal they had already agreed upon on March 26, and were looking to make a new deal based on the fact that no fans will be in the crowd.
