MLB: Union to Vote No on 60 games

That’s Amaury News and Commentary

By Amaury Pi-Gonzalez

Around and around it goes, where it stops, nobody knows! Today the MLPA is expected to vote NO to the 60 games season proposed by MLB/Owners. This means, Commissioner Rob Manfred will probably order a 50-game season (as the March 26 agreement stipulates) and plus that will give the players union the option to file legal documents against Major League Baseball/Owners. For negotiating in ‘bad faith’, for a starters.If you are or know an attorney, they might explain this fiasco with much clarity.

The package rejected was the 60 games proposed by the owners by the Commissioner that would have began the season July 19-20 and ended September 29th. The season still very much at risk with the rise of Covid-19 cases, with the Philadelphia Phillies and Toronto Blue Jays reporting players and staff also contracted the virus, and teams closing their practicing facilities.

This script follows to a “T”the movie “Groundhog Day”

Stay well and stay tuned.
