Major League Baseball Players Association Declines Owners’ Offer
The Major League Baseball Players Association voted to 33 to 5 against the league’s offer of a 60 game season, according to an ESPN report.
The vote follows the league’s decision to not consider the MLBPA’s latest counteroffer to play 70 games. Players had been expected to vote Sunday on the proposal, but postponed it to Monday after Executive Director Tony Clark received a letter from Major League Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred.
