"Despite what you may have read or heard at any given time, the quote-unquote -player share- is as close to 50-50 as it has been in a long time," Clark said.

"From top to bottom, the industry is indeed doing well, and whether you're on the players' side or you're on management?s side, we've been able to collectively move forward in a positive fashion."

There is no mandate for players to receive a designated percentage of revenue. That would be part of a salary cap, which the union has fiercely and successfully resisted.

The current labor agreement expires in December 2016. Clark said he expects negotiations on a new one to start during spring training.

That assessment of the revenue split contradicts everything else I've read. Also, the split appears to be moving steadily downward from a player's perspective. I have to wonder why the union wants to frame things differently.
