The latest proposal by the owners, according to a report Monday by ESPN's Jeff Passan, calls for a season that could be as short as 50 regular-season games. Players would be paid a pro-rated salary.
A day earlier, the players proposed a 114-game season, Passan reported, running from June 30 to Oct. 31.
That came after the owners approved a plan for an 82-game season that would start July 1-4 without fans in the stands.
