Major League Baseball and the MLBPA once again produced little progress toward a new collective bargaining agreement on Tuesday, the second-straight day of in-person meetings.

The league actually viewed Tuesday's session as a step backwards.

The union reduced its proposal for players to enter arbitration after two years, from 80% of players to 75%, but countered that by asking for more in its minimum salary structure.

The two sides met for about three hours. The league once again brought up the idea of a federal mediator, but the players rejected the idea for the second time in a month.
