During a recent WFAN interview, MLB commissioner Rob Manfred discussed potential innovations like “split seasons” and an in-season tournament. He acknowledged the likelihood of a work stoppage affecting the 2027 season, emphasizing his goal of maintaining a 162-game schedule despite concerns over collective bargaining negotiations set to expire in December 2026. Manfred noted that media negativity may be premature and addressed the contentious issue of a salary cap, indicating it shouldn’t be a deal-breaker in negotiations.
