MLB puts salary cap twist in new CBA proposal. What do players think?

Major League Baseball is making another adjustment to its proposed salary cap as negotiations over a new collective bargaining agreement continue. However, the latest offer does not appear to have changed the players’ concerns about the league’s proposed economic system. According to ESPN’s Jeff Passan, MLB has proposed delaying the implementation of a salary cap until the 2028 season while keeping the other elements of its labor proposal for 2027. The league cited the difficulty teams face navigating free agency amid uncertainty surrounding the next collective bargaining agreement. MLB also increased the proposed financial limits for 2028.
