MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred and MLBPA head Tony Clark are having face to face meetings in Arizona, per multiple reports. Indications are that they met last night, and are meeting again today (perhaps right now).
Jon Heyman tweets that the meeting is “being called productive,” and we can only hope that this will help break the logjam between the players and owners over the 2020 season getting underway.
The players and owners exchanged proposals, with the key issue in dispute being that the players want to play as many games as possible at their full salaries (though on a pro-rated basis), while the owners are wanting the players to take additional reductions to their salaries, and play a shorter season.
