MLB owners and representatives from the MLBPA met again on Tuesday in an attempt to bring an end to the lockout for a second straight day, but a deal will continue to wait.
The players proposed a framework for a new collective bargaining agreement which included moving the amount of 2-3 year players eligible for arbitration from 80% to 75%, dropping eight to seven picks in a draft lottery and a minimum salary of $775,000 for 2022.
There were no new proposals on the collective bargaining tax.
Per reports, MLB was not impressed with the union’s offer but intends to make a proposal on Wednesday — the third consecutive day of meetings.
MLB also proposed bringing in a federal mediator again, but the players refused, again.
MLB has said that a deal would need to be agreed upon by Feb. 28 in order to avoid losing any regular season games.
