From players to fans, everyone is worried about the current status of Major League Baseball. And if the MLB owners and players do not agree to their new Collective Bargaining agreement as soon as possible, then not only spring training but also the league games seem to be in danger. On the other hand, MLB Commissioner has said that there are no changes in the spring training schedule.

Even if the owners and the players’ association agree to the new CBA deal in the coming days, then it is very unlikely that teams will be able to play in spring training. Notably, as per schedule, spring training for the 2022 season will start on February 26. And considering the current scenario of MLB, it is very unlikely that teams will even be able to participate in spring training.

MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred on spring training of the 2022 season

With lockout still in motion, even thinking about spring training of this season is practically not possible. Because as soon as the lockout will end, MLB teams will first hunt for their desired free agents in the market. Players like Carlos Correa, Clayton Kershaw, Freddie Freeman, and Seiya Suzuki are among the top players, who are in their free agency. And none of them have joined or agreed with any team. So if the lockout ends, the first priority for both the clubs and players will be to sign a contract.

While Manfred in his media address on Thursday made a weird comment about spring training of the 2022 season. He said that as of now there are no changes in the 2022 schedule.

“The status of spring training is no change right now,” said MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred during spring training of this season.

MLB owners and the Players’ Association to meet on Saturday

After a heated last week in Major League Baseball, the club owners and the players’ association will be meeting again on Saturday to discuss the new Collective Bargaining Agreement. Hopefully, this time they will close the deal and end the two-month-old lockout in MLB.
