Major League Baseball Commissioner Robert D. Manfred Jr. discussed proposals for implementing a salary cap and salary floor starting in 2028 during an interview at the 95th MLB All-Star Game in Atlanta on July 15, 2025. The potential changes would represent a significant shift in the league's economic structure, which currently operates without a hard salary cap. The discussion comes as part of ongoing labor negotiations between the league and the players' association. A report published on November 3, 2026, highlighted the commissioner's comments, though specific details of the proposals were not disclosed.
