The 2026-2027 Major League Baseball<\/a> offseason won\u2019t be dominated by free agency, or big trades. It\u2019ll be dominated by the most exciting aspect of any sport: labor negotiations.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Collective Bargaining Agreement between the league and the Major League Baseball Players Association expires this December, and extensive disagreements between the two sides are expected to lead to contentious debate.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Well, per several new reports, those negotiations are officially underway as owners and the players look to avoid a work stoppage that could derail baseball\u2019s hard fought momentum.<\/p>\n

SMALL MARKET MLB TEAMS ARE OUTPERFORMING BIG PAYROLLS, UNDERMINING OWNERS’ PUSH TO CANCEL 2027 SEASON<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

Both Jeff Passan and Evan Drellich reported on Tuesday that representatives from the league office and MLBPA met in New York City to start the process. And there\u2019s plenty to unpack from the leadup to these discussions already.<\/p>\n

Per Drellich\u2019s report<\/u><\/a>, this first meeting was not intended to discuss “formal proposals.” Instead, it was “about setting the stage with opening presentations.”<\/p>\n

“Both the league and the players were expected to outline their respective visions for how the game is operating today,” he wrote. “Moving forward, the real heavy lifting begins, with subsequent meetings set to feature formal proposals on the economics and core issues at hand.”<\/p>\n

While details on the proposals are scarce, it\u2019s no secret where both sides sit. And the first quarter of the 2026 season has put some very big holes in the league\u2019s arguments already.<\/p>\n

Ownership wants to incorporate a salary cap and salary floor, based on arguments and assumptions that big market, high spending teams<\/span> like the New York Mets<\/a> or Los Angeles Dodgers are making competitive balance impossible for smaller market organizations<\/span>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The players, meanwhile, have repeatedly said that a salary cap is a non-starter for negotiations. Their contention is that it limits their earning potential with few benefits, particularly competitive ones.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And there\u2019s plenty of evidence they\u2019re right.<\/p>\n

METS AND PHILLIES HAVE NEARLY $700M IN COMBINED PAYROLL AND ARE ALREADY IN TROUBLE OF MISSING PLAYOFFS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

It\u2019s still early, but with roughly 25% of the season completed, the New York Mets, with their $370 million and more than $100 million in luxury tax penalties, are one of the worst teams in baseball. They\u2019re 15-25, in dead last in the National League East, and are a whopping 12.5 games out of first place. An expensive lineup that features the highest-paid player in baseball, Juan Soto<\/a>, along with other high-priced players like Bo Bichette, Francisco Lindor, Marcus Semien, Jorge Polanco and Luis Robert Jr., has scored just 139 runs in 40 games. That\u2019s tied for the lowest run scoring total in MLB this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The other team tied at 139 runs scored? The big-market, high-payroll San Francisco Giants. San Francisco has a $200 million payroll thanks to expensive players like Willy Adames at $26 million per year, Matt Chapman<\/a> at $25 million, Jung Hoo Lee at nearly $19 million, and Rafael Devers, who\u2019s making nearly $30 million annually. The Giants are 17-24 and 7.5 games out of first place.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The Philadelphia Phillies<\/a>, with a nearly $300 million payroll, are 19-22, have been outscored on the season by over 30 runs, and are nine games back in their division.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Even the Dodgers, who have been accused of “ruining baseball” and making the sport not worth watching, are currently in second place<\/a> behind the Padres. Their big free-agent acquisition, Kyle Tucker, is hitting just .250 with four home runs and a .392 slugging percentage thus far. He\u2019s making $60 million this year.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the lowly Tampa Bay Rays<\/a>, whose entire team payroll is just $87 million, are 27-13 and in first. They have one player making more than $9 million this year, pitcher Nick Martinez.\u00a0<\/p>\n

In the American League West<\/a>, a division filled with teams in Houston, the Los Angeles metro area, Dallas, and Seattle, it\u2019s the (Sacramento) Athletics in first place as of May 12. The Cleveland Guardians sit first in the AL Central.<\/p>\n

HERE’S WHAT THE SAN DIEGO PADRES RECORD $3.9 BILLION SALE MEANS FOR MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

In fact, here are the markets in first in all six divisions:\u00a0<\/p>\n

How can the owners make a serious argument that it\u2019s impossible to compete with big market teams with the standings the way they are? Well, it won\u2019t be a serious argument because competitive balance is the least of their concerns. Increasing their franchise values and limiting costs are.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The theory across baseball ownership is that spending less money on contracts<\/a> makes organizations more valuable. Interestingly, the San Diego Padres, with several big commitments on their books, despite their small market, just sold for $3.9 billion. So that argument falls apart on any level of scrutiny as well.<\/p>\n

In reality, a salary cap benefits ownership by limiting a free market. Players have little reason to agree to it; therefore, a lockout seems inevitable. If anyone analyzing from the outside can see the standings and make this connection, you can bet the players have too.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It\u2019s a long way from May to December. Hopefully these negotiations, presentations and proposals are successful. Based on prior results, that seems unlikely.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
