One week after pushing back the start of the exhibition season, Major League Baseball announced that Spring Training games in both the Grapefruit and Cactus Leagues will not be played until at least March 8.

The previous delay addressed games up until March 4, and an MLB spokesperson told reporters on Friday afternoon that the games on March 5-7 will not be played. MLB and the MLB Players Association continue to meet in Jupiter, Fla., this weekend with the hope of hammering out a new collective bargaining agreement.
