Not so fast! MLB union chief says players haven't gotten a formal proposal about restarting MLB

These days, not a week passes without a new plan about restarting baseball leaking and taking over the news cycle. The past month has given us everything from quarantined leagues in Arizona and Florida to a shorter season that would see MLB turn into three 10-team divisions.

Just Monday, former MLB player Trevor Plouffe said on Twitter that players would be reporting to spring training in June with the league starting July 1. While that sounds great, it also doesn’t seem to be true. Not yet at least.

The truth remains — as it has since the start of the coronavirus shutdown — that nobody knows for sure when baseball is going to restart.
