Whether MLB owners and players reach an agreement in time to save Opening Day is likely going to come down to the late innings before a Monday deadline, writes Tom Verducci
Whether Major League Baseball owners and players reach an agreement in time to save Opening Day is likely going to come down to the late innings before a Monday deadline. Even a rare second straight day of negotiations in Jupiter, Fla., failed to break a months-long pattern of incremental, even regressive, movement.to what it considered incremental movement from the owners Monday with tweaks Tuesday that included what the owners regarded as a third successive step backward from the players.
The union did not make a proposal on the Competitive Balance Tax, where the two sides are $31 million apart in year one and $51 million apart in year five. The movement by the union on Super Two eligibility would add about 85 players to the arbitration pool, down from about 93 in their previous proposal. The owners regard any movement in arbitration eligibility as moot, as they have informed the union since last year that changes to arbitration eligibility and revenue sharing are non-starters.
For the second time, MLB asked the players Tuesday to agree to using a federal mediator. The players again declined.
