MLBPA Vows to Fight Salary Cap Proposal

Meyer made the declaration during an online Q&A session as MLB proposes a $245.3 million spending cap for 2027, with a $171.2 million floor. The Dodgers' $415.2 million payroll this year would exceed the proposed cap by about $170 million.

Baseball has seen nine work stoppages since 1972, with regular-season games last lost in the 1994-95 strike. The union has proposed expanded free agency and increased minimum salary while MLB insists the cap would level the playing field and share revenue 50/50 with players. sweetbonanza.qpon
