This afternoon, the MLBPA rejected the latest owners’ proposal for a 2020 season by a 33-5 vote, emphasizing its desire to continue negotiation — and preserving its right to file a grievance for bad-faith negotiation on the part of ownership.
As a result, MLB held a quick vote among owners and is said to have unanimous backing for a 60-game season that will start at the end of July. The owners had the right to force the start of a season, according to the original (and still only) negotiated agreement in this pandemic era, back on March 26.
