Rob Manfred Asks Players Association To Keep Open Mind For CBA Negotiations
Major League Baseball faces a high probability of a lockout this offseason as things currently stand. As expected, the introduction of a potential salary cap continues to be the line in the sand that neither side is willing to abandon.
The league and ownership have also introduced a variety of other proposals throughout the year. Most recently it included an expanded Division Series, 154-game schedule and other postseason changes.
Both sides will need to soften their stances if there is to be any hope of avoiding a disruption to the offseason once the current collective bargaining agreement (CBA) expires.
