MLBPA saying Heyman is a lying dick.
Yes son. I'm the best mono-thingy guy there ever was.

Guess they're all lying dicks.

@JeffPassan
The MLB proposal to the MLBPA, as @Ken_Rosenthal said, is for a 60-game season that ends around Sept. 27 and gives players fully prorated salaries. It would have expanded playoffs and would include waiving of right to grieve by the union.

It’s an offer Heyman said they’re closing in on a deal. Other people are being more conservative.

probably in the minority here and definitely jonesing for sports but its kinda sucky that baseball is coming off looking like arses probably rightly so both sides - but they probably shouldn't even be playing anyway arguably.

Tom Haudricort: Pending MLB agreement reportedly includes DH in NL for both 2020 and 2021. Then comes new CBA which almost certainly will include it. So, NL is a DH league now.

Ken Rosenthal @Ken_Rosenthal

Here we go again: MLB believes deal was agreed to; union says it wasn’t.

I'm a little sad. Seems like a weird concession for the league to make to the players at this time.

It's the perfect concession as it was going to happen in a couple of years anyway.

@JeffPassan
The Major League Baseball Players Association has finalized a proposal to MLB for a season in the neighborhood of 70 games, sources tell me and
@JesseRogersESPN

@JeffPassan
The MLBPA’s proposal to MLB is for 70 games, sources tell ESPN, and includes a split of playoff revenues.

While the league is unlikely to accept this proposal, it’s close enough for optimism there will be a season — whether it’s via a deal or MLB setting a shorter schedule.


@BNightengale
There is still a $250 million difference with the union's latest proposal, with no signs the two sides will quickly reach a compromise
