Some additional items in the new CBA…
1. Beginning in 2023, teams will play all other teams in both leagues. The increase in inter-league games will come at the expense of intra-divisional games. The exact numbers have not been determined.
2. Increasing the size of bases is a possibility beginning in 2023. Note: the shift has not been banned in 2023 yet. It will be a discussion item along with a pitch clock and the aforementioned base size issue.
3. No Rule 5 draft this year. Seth Corry will be in the Giants organization (unless traded) for at least one more season.
4. Teams can only option players to the minors five times per season (this could impact our local nine as the Sacramento to San Francisco daily express will be reduced).
5. Every team will be permitted a maximum of 13 pitchers on the roster at any given time. Note: this rule may be suspended in the early part of the season as pitchers slowly ramp up.
