MLB submits 72-game season to MLBPA

According to multiple outlets, the MLB has a new proposal for the MLBPA. The latest proposal is for a 72-game season with players receiving 70 percent of prorated salaries for the regular season and 80 percent if the postseason is completed.

The deadline for the players to reach an agreement is Sunday, but based on tweets we’ve seen from a handful of players, it’s unlikely they will reach a deal.

Per Ken Rosenthal, the offer yet again includes an option to suspend draft-pick comp for the 2020-21 offseason. Within 48 hours of approval, the MLB would announce a timeline for the resumption of the season, with spring training lasting at least three weeks.
