Report: MLB, Players Discussing Controlled Sites for the Postseason

Major League Baseball is having discussions with the players union about specific "controlled sites" being used to host postseason play, according to The Athletic's Ken Rosenthal.

Though the proposed plans are "not close to final," it is reportedly being discussed to host the American League in Southern California and the National League in Texas during the playoffs. The World Series would "possibly" take place at the Rangers' new ballpark, Globe Life Field, in Arlington, Texas, per Rosenthal.

While the league is currently talking with the MLB Players Association about possibilities to conduct the postseason, a final plan would be subject to approval from team ownership.
