Description

After 88 grueling days, MLB and the MLBPA find themselves right back where they stared. Contentious and public negotiations dragged on, but the sides ultimately will move forward under the March agreement, which gave Commissioner Rob Manfred the right to implement a season without player approval with players receiving full pro-rated salaries. The lack of a new agreement probably means, among other things, no expanded postseason and no DH in 2021, but nevertheless the commissioner appears poised to implement a 60-game season beginning around July 24, as soon as players agree to health and safety protocols, which is expected to happen today. All the details, and how they affect the San Francisco Giants, are discussed on today's show.
