JUPITER, Fla. (AP) — Locked-out players have made a counterproposal to Major League Baseball as management’s end-of-Monday deadline approaches for a labor deal that would salvage opening day and a 162-game schedule. The sides met for the sixth straight day at Roger Dean Stadium in Jupiter, Florida. Both sides made moves, but the union was upset with management’s response. The union staff planned to discuss with players whether to meet Sunday or to head home.
