MLB Commissioner Rob Manfred on Wednesday (March 9th) canceled two more series for each team, a total of 93 more games erased, as there was still no agreement with the players’ union on a new labor deal.
The first two series for each team had already been canceled, and the total has now increased to 184 games or more than seven percent of the season. The two sides had reportedly gotten very close on the contested economic issues but were stalemated over management wanting an international amateur draft.
