25th Anniversary Retrospective: The 1994 and 1995 Seasons

The biggest news story of 1994 season was not Miami Marlins specific but MLB wide. There was a lot of tension between the MLB and the Players Association over proposed salary caps and revenue sharing. That’s the subject of a different article! Long story short, this resulted in the longest player strike in MLB history. August 12, 1994 the players went on strike. No agreements could be made and the duration of the season was canceled, playoffs included. No World Series Champion would be crowned in 1994.

Negotiations would go on through the off-season and eventually come to temporary agreements in the spring of 1995.
