Major League Baseball postpones spring training as negotiations continue. North America’s Major League Baseball (MLB) has postponed the spring training to at least March 5 because of the current lockdown, announced the majors league on Friday. “We regret that, without a collective bargaining agreement in place, we must postpone the start of spring training games,” the MLB said in a statement. “All 30 clubs are unified in their strong desire to bring players back to the field and fans back to the stands.” The majors league entered a lockout after the last collective bargaining agreement (CBA) expired. So far, the negotiations between team owners and the MLB Players Association (MLBPA) have gone nowhere. ESPN revealed that the talks between the two sides ended after only 15 minutes on Thursday.
