A second straight day of CBA negotiations brought about a counter proposal from the MLB Players Association to the league's owners, with the offer reportedly touching on increasing salaries for pre-arbitration players, raising the minimum salaries for all players and tweaking the proposed draft lottery, per The Athletic's Evan Drellich. There was no movement regarding the league's competitive balance tax.
The players's union has proposed that 75% of players with two to three years of service time be eligible for arbitration, a decrease from the initial request of 80%. The MLBPA also requested a raise to the overall league minimum salary to $775,000, with annual $30,000 increases for the lifetime of the CBA.
