Bud Selig: MLB on ‘Constructive Path’ to Labor Talks; Expanded Replay on Hold
PARADISE VALLEY, Ariz. (AP) — Major League Baseball and its players’ union will begin contract talks soon with none of the rancor and lockout threats that are plaguing the NFL and NBA.
“We’re on a constructive path,” Commissioner Bud Selig said.
Selig offered a rosy picture of the economics of the coming seasons on Thursday and praised the solid relationship that his staff has formed with the union.
The two-day gathering, described by Selig as “a non-controversial meeting,” wrapped up at a quiet Phoenix-area resort on Thursday with a meeting of the special committee formed a year ago to come up with on-field changes for the game.
