The MLB Players Association and Major League Baseball are set to meet again, according to reports.
The MLBPA is expected to make a counteroffer to the league's proposal for a new collective bargaining agreement when the two sides meet on Monday, according to Jeff Passan.
The two sides met for the first time in months. According to Jesse Rogers, they discussed "non-core economic issues" including "scheduling, grievance procedures, special events, and/or the drug and domestic violence policies."
The owners made a proposal to the players that didn't go over well. Passan reported that the players' reaction was not positive and the start of spring training could be delayed.
Jon Heyman of MLB Network stated that the league's proposal included higher pay for younger players. The players viewed the offer as disappointing.
The league and MLBPA failed to reach an agreement on a new Collective Bargaining Agreement before the old one expired. Revenue sharing between clubs, the arbitration process and years in the league to free agency are some of the major issues that led to the Lockout.
The MLB regular season is scheduled to start on March 31 and Spring training is scheduled to begin on February 26. Unless one of the sides is able to change its stance, those dates could be changed.
