Major League Baseball and its players’ association are beginning to make progress toward a new collective bargaining agreement.

The two sides met on Monday and Tuesday, with the players making an offer and rejecting most or all of the owners’ previous proposal.

The players proposed raising the minimum MLB salary to $775,000 from $570,500. MLB has reportedly countered at $615,000 for first-year players.

Both sides have proposed a bonus pool for players under minimum salaries based on the Wins Above Replacement statistic. MLB suggested a $10 million fund, while the players want it to be $105 million.

Forty-six percent of players made under $500,000 in 2021. The MLBPA also reduced its requested increase in revenue sharing funds from large market to small market teams to $30 million from $100 million.

Larger Issues Loom

The two sides are still at a standoff on several issues, and MLB executive Dan Halem said that the league is willing to lose 2022 regular-season games to hold their ground.

On Monday, the MLBPA dropped its request that players be able to reach free agency earlier than after six years of service time (a system teams regularly manipulate to gain most of a seventh year).

MLB shed its proposal to restructure the arbitration system, which guides most player salaries for their fourth-through-sixth years of team control. The players have asked for a fourth year to be put under the arbitration system instead of a minimum salary.

Both were sterling athletes and superstars. Hard to say why they have not been inducted yet. :-/

I knew a couple guys who would pop little pills to keep going on those long hours on snow and ice. There were times we would run for 5 or 6 days straight in winter without a break. ;)

Better living through chemistry, OK if you don't overdo it.
