Major League Baseball gave itself and the players’ association six hours to salvage opening day.
New York Yankees managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner walks through Roger Dean Stadium as Major League Baseball negotiations continue in an attempt to reach an agreement to salvage March 31 openers and a 162-game season, Tuesday, March 1, 2022, in Jupiter, Fla.
The sides agreed, subject to an overall deal, to expand the postseason from 10 to 12 teams, rather than the 14 MLB had hoped for.—Raising the luxury tax threshold from $210 million to $220 million this year, rising to $230 million.—Raising the minimum salary from $570,500 to $675,000 this year, with increases of $10,000 annually.
Players’ latest proposals contemplated giving up on expanding salary arbitration from the top 22% to 35% by service time of the players with at least two seasons of service and less than three. “We’re working at it,” Manfred said around 6 p.m. after his second session of the day with the union.Yankees managing general partner Hal Steinbrenner didn’t leave the ballpark until 1:30 a.m. Mets pitcher Max Scherzer and free agent reliever Andrew Miller, the two players present, drove away at 2:30 a.m.
Emotions became more heated as the sides pressed for each other’s bottom line. Philadelphia star Bryce Harper posted a photo on Instagram altered to show him in a Japanese baseball uniform with the words: “Yomiuri Giants you up? Got some time to kill.”
