Like an inning full of walks and errors that never ends, the spat between Major League Baseball’s team owners and players continues as the calendar shrinks, making a 2020 season less likely every day.

On this week’s WISE Sports Radio baseball segment, Pat Ryan and I discuss the latest salary and schedule proposal from MLB owners to the players, which really isn’t different from the previous plans they’ve proposed. This continues to be dancing around a negotiation, not an actual negotiation process.

I misspoke when citing the 33 percent salary figures that were posted on Twitter. That was from CBS Sports’ Mike Axisa, not anyone at ESPN.

– 82 games at sliding scale = ~33% salary

– 50 games at prorated pay = ~33% salary

– 76 games at 75% prorated pay = (drumroll) ~33% salary

It all comes back to the same place. MLB keeps making the same offer in different forms. https://t.co/DVfURfN50f
