According to numerous sources, Major League Baseball released a proposal on Tuesday that would significantly cut the salary of all players.
The proposed deal would have to be vetted and agreed upon by the MLBPA but there is already a lot of negativity surrounding deal, and the likelihood of an agreement is low at best. The Players Association said:

The cuts would scale based on the salary of each player as follows:
- $563,501 to $1 million would make 72.
