New CBA proposal adjusts salary cap, floor
Major League Baseball has amended its salary cap and floor proposal to the MLB Players Association. Now that the 2026 season is complete and baseball is into its offseason, MLB has proposed delaying the start of the salary cap and floor to the 2028 season. The rest of their proposals would begin with the 2027 season but the teams would have a full season to make adjustments to prepare themselves for the coming changes.
The owners further proposed increasing the cap to $258.2 million from the original $245.3 million and the floor to $180.2 million from $171.2 million. The new numbers reflect a 50-50 split of the projected revenue for the 2028 season.
