On Sunday afternoon, the Major League Baseball Players Association offered their first counter-proposal to the league for the 2020 season. According to Jeff Passan of ESPN, the plan includes a 114-game regular season beginning June 30 and ending October 31. It completely eliminates the sliding-scale pay structure proposed by the owners.
The players association also agreed to deferred salaries only if the postseason were canceled. One hundred million dollars in total can be deferred and it would only apply to players making $10 million or more before the original salary proration the two sides agreed upon in March.
